I think the missing part is the labor it takes to do H/C and the cost involved vs. just going FI. Plus at 59cc's and with the piston design I am not sure how much room for PTV there is to get your DCR correct for the cams out there. People like LMR, Vengeance, Weapon X have all been doing them for a while with good results from what I have seen. To me, it just seems to be a big runner with not a lot of flow from the factory. I am sure there is a bunch that can be done. I just haven't purchased a core head to mess with yet. Now that the MSD manifold is out as well you may see more builds that can take advantage of the extra flow.
I am really wondering what kinda of power they are actually making. I think the majority of it is coming from the cam. Obviously getting the combo perfect will make more power. But heads alone I would venture to guess couldnt be worth more than 15 hp at peak RPM.

I mean if I am going to put a cam in and have to take the heads off and apart anyway, I might as well but a nice set of cylinder heads back on...

Let me know what you come up with, I would be very interested in results.
