i am still unsure what it will make. im hoping for around 160-170. it made that 145 on the standard inlet cast manifold and shitty standard stainless system. im hoping that with the bodies and 2" system and decent 4-2-1 with standalone ecu i will be able to up the power and make the most out of the ported head. i feel that it was restricted alot when i had it on rollers last.
i think anything more i may have to start looking into internals.
my mate rebuilt the same engine with standard internals mild cams and ported head. using the same r1bodies it made 175.

i wouldnt touch jefferies personally, they are known for being abit generous with their figures.
and i know a few guys who had their motors in there, and im talking 600bhp evos, and they have forgotten to do this or that and its gone bang!
i know some of the guys at AP motors, but again, just dont trust their standards of work!
there is a guy over in saltash, with a rolling road in his house garage.
or
FCM motorsport in bristol - if you dont mind the trip, its worth it!
