That's right, you mentioned no power gain with stock valves and lump, but you didn't have flow bench results for that combo, just dyno.

I know you guys want to sell lumps, but for those of us building a 250 for the street on a budget, what's the difference between a valve job with bosses on the stock valves versus 1.84/1.6 with valve job and bosses? Does the bigger valves make a difference with the bosses in place or are they they only useful once you remove the bosses and put the lumps in.
