Re: 500hp, more power
We can get you an additional 80 from porting your heads and with a cam change added over 100+hp total, give us a call.

This brings up an interesting subject .... I too am thinking of adding about 100hp each to my 454mags ...but I have seen post saying if they had it to do over they would wait till more HP can be gained because there wasn't much added performance with a 200hp increase. I would tend to dissagree ( I really have no clue) . while not expecting a 10mph gain I would expect better midrange, easier plane and some top end help .... Thanks for you comments ....

Re: 500hp, more power
If you are already making 550 HP, the biggest gains you are going to make where you will be happy is going to aftermaket cyl. heads. The factory heads even with the best porter will not constitute 80 horsepower gain over where you are now. Depending on your camshaft now, a cam change may also be required. Also by going to an aftermarket head will allow you to bump the static comp. up which will also net a gain.

Here are the sheets from a pair of 502's we did last week with different heads, cam and upgrading to roller valve train.
