Good questions that will help us answer.


OP, you might also look at ditching the VHR heads if you have big plans. Much easier to accomplish big power reliably without VVEL.

I remember seeing that someone was doing an HR head swap - did that ever go through?

Thinking about now, I don't think the stroker kit, let alone any internals kit should affect the heads in any way, right? Maybe the VVEL could be tuned in conjunction with the increased piston speed, alongside timing control for some good power gains.
