160 HP, no.
Tuned, looks like it was off. He may have tuned it for optimimun HP and that is what happens when you do it. I am with Jake here...an AFR would have been a good addition to the tuning tools that he used. To lean, to advanced. It may have made 160, but it only lasted for a day. Need to retorque heads after breaking in... How much does he want for it? You can fix that,,,its just money. If the tub is good (I did not look at all the pics) its worth saving. Engine can be fixed easier than rust. Rich |
