You can have any configuration of parts, as long as you can make it work as a system, that determines your power. VVL heads flow well, but when they are well ported, and you can legit get to 300cfm+ numbers thats where the power is at. The bottom end is just there to suck squish and take a bang.

on a side note all other things identical how much power does everyone think would differ between 86-88-90mm bores? The more I read the more I think maybe the 1800ish $ for the sleeved block to run 90mm bore may be better spent on a set of hayward ITBs or at the very least a custom intake manifold .. I mean if I decide that I infact do want the 90mm setup im not opposed to spending the money I just thought if the gains were minimal id rather not mess with it simply because the extra wait time .. both in terms of getting the block done and saving the cash to have it done .. im very excited to have a quick b13 as my last one was a simple ga16de untill I traded it to a friend and he blew the 1.6 and we swapped it to a DE lol but id definitely like to hear opinions on the bore vs hp thing.
