To knock about 90 HP out of it! I was being sarcastic. Look at the dyno sheets below, plain old 455 cast crank/Eagle rod/Ross piston build with #96 heads flowing 250cfm.

With the Comp XR276HR it not only didn't make shi# for power it pinged on the dyno hard enough to get a new set of rod bearings.

Changing only the cam the engine idled better, improved throttle response, less "reversion" and quite a bit more power everyplace.........Cliff
