Those are dyno number not flywheel. And it's still a 27ish whp gain on just cams and pistons. If you gain that much while being full bolt on then I think it's worth it. But if I'll only see 10whp it's not

If it gives more than 20 WHP (assuming that the vehicle have all the bolts on and tune) then i think it worth it.

Okay... well get a quote from someone you like on labor for opening the head and installing new cam.

If the numbers work out for you (or if you can do it yourself), go for it!

For me, it sounds like headache + expensive + unsure how the car will run.

Correct... It's going to take a good 10 - 12 hours of labor in order to get these in. $4,000+ for 20 - 30whp? No thanks, I'll put that towards a supercharger or turbo.

It's easy to say "it won't work" or "it's not worth it". I feel like the 370 has been around long enough at this point where we can start seeing some new things experimented with instead of just the normal boring bolt-ons.

Those looked like engine dyno numbers, not chassis dyno numbers... thus, to the crank.
