    Trickflow Top End Kit - Wow!

    I just had the TFS Track Head Topend Kit put in. "360HP" Version. It was installed by Realspeed in Long Island, NY. The car is much, much stronger now and feels much more like a modern V8 in terms of power. It feels like it should be in the lower 13's at the track with any luck. Running...
