Sorry for the "plagiarism" , it was meant as a cut n paste on the subject w/ a link to the original article . I'll try better to include a disclaimer .
I don't believe every thing I read on the Internet , and this article which was obviously someones opinion , would need parts to be verified or discredited . It looked like an interesting article on the subject .

This is a great board that helps everyone ( who wants to ) learn the reasons whys a system works . Then the owner is actually repairing his Tractor instead of throwing money at it until the problem is solved .

I had a buddy back in high school add headers and a 2x4 to his Z28's stock motor . He was the only one that though it went faster , he he .
