at least he qualified it as "in his opinion" so he SHOULD NOT have
started of with "speaking truthfully..."

these are the facts...

our ss tbi will give 18 +/- hp to a 5.2

  ditto 23 +/- to a 5.9

i flowed them on a superflow 600 on a 420 scale

and mr mike is definitely WRONG! here folks... as the tbi % of gain is
larger than the extrude hone mfld... if lowed them too
