My power was peak of 179Hp at the rollers but held peak power from around 6500 thru to 9000 without any drop off, great power band but not a normal type. Anyway we will continue with changes and testing as I need around 200Hp at the tyres for the class of racing i'm in.
By the way a side note on the 184-C they aren't a drop in as the lift is too high for standard springs (12.5mm) so if a straight drop inno shims are what someone is after mybe stick with the N1 cams.

Hi Geoff,
Watched a couple of your IPRA races last night. Gotta say I am impressed with steering, braking, handling etc. they are the equal of those pesky Honda's, well done! A few more ponies and you will be at the front of the pack. Have you seen this thread over on Performance Forums ?
Vet 180's SR20VE N/A head - PerformanceForums
This guy TK did a VE head for a customer with lots of pics, port flows etc. I have read a few of his posts and seems like he gets very good results with his porting and has a bit of a cult following. He did a one off job on an old L series Datto head and got better results that Mark Banyard who does them for a living.
TK also did some modelling of the head flow and HP potential with the same Kelford cam as this Thread references (184-C). The results are just what you want to solve the HP problem.
I am sure that Clint and others will also be interested in TK's trhead.
Hope this helps, good luck with the racing this season - will be keen to see how you go.
Regards
Max
