I just did a direct swap. I wish I could find a shop to Tune the car but they are all far off ( Atlanta or Nashville ) It sure would help to have a great tune though. Tommorrow after the gaskets set up and I know I have no leaks I will put the beast through it's paces. From what little driving I did do I noticed much improvement. After looking at the head ports and intake ports I don't think you loose much over the 1/8-1/4 inch of miss matched openings. Maybe a little turbulance but that can't be all that bad. My only concern would be a leak from the coolant ports into the intake port on the heads. There is only a small amount of space between the two. I added plenty of gasket material at those points. We'll see what tommorrow brings!
