Don't wast your time, find a set of 317 heads and have them milled about .030 .040. You will have less in them, then trying to use 862's. The 862 is a smaller head all over, valves, runners ect. Again raising the shift points is only going to help some, but not 100hp worth.

okay ill look in to that since i can usually pick up a set of 317 heads for around $100 around here.
and yeah i know the shift points alone aren't going to help but but i guess that way i can discard that part of it.

pm details on intake please
well i got it dyno'd on a dyno day so that wasn't an option. but ill give nelsons one more try since their retunes are free. if that fails i will have one of the local speed shops dyno tune it.

I bet your running out of injector. I have a set if 65# injectors and a Bosch 044 pump and filter if your interested. Alittle overkill for your setup though

Kelsey's question is what I was going to ask. Pump & injectors, what are you running. Stock is not at all adequate for your setup. Time to step up.

Is your tune a mail-order, or a dyno/street tune? Mail-order is no bueno.

Upgrade fuel system, install wideband and get a scanner = prosper. I'm not trying to push products either. A scanner and a wideband can pay for itself many times over with diagnostics.
