So if I was to tear the intake off to replace lifters, do you think it'd be worth it to run thinner head gaskets to get my quench in order? Just seems 10.5:1 is high for iron heads and 91 octane. I also know you recommend running the vic jr 2bbl intake, any advantage to going to that over my performer rpm? Was told to go with the performer rpm and plumb coolant under the plenum as per rbob, which is what I have done. Also have a 195* stat.
