Ok. So 47bhp and 60 torque on a standard small valve head and cast manifold.
Pulls like a train and chuffed to bits with the 3.1 diff on the L2B run.
So, and here's the six million dollar question, will putting a 295 head on, mani flow free flow outlet and an inlet make much difference to the torque?
Very tempted to leave as is unless there are gains to be made.
Any advice appreciated.

if you wait a month or so i will let you know as my spec will be the following.
+60 rebore (1046cc)
MD266 cam
Flat top pistons
12G295 head fully reconditioned, new guides, new unleaded seats, valves seats recut and lapped in.
Reground crankshaft
Vernier Duplex timing gear
25D Dizzy to be recurved on RR session with electronic ignition
CR to be around 10:1
Lightened flywheel
standard gearbox with 3.44 FD
Howley 1 inlet manifold ports matched to head
Maniflow Freeflow exhaust manifold
RC40 twin box
HIF38 Vizard mods (needle made on RR session)
k+n element filter
Minispares supercool rad
i was thinking about a 3.1FD but i am worried it will kill the performance.
