How much difference the thicker cooler will make will depend on the type of core. However the thicker core should improve cooling efficiency.

i'd recomend gettin sum mandrel bends in there, the right angle bends you have at the moment wouldnt be helping much in the power department...

You really need a cam as well to get it to haul. My car increased 30hp at the wheels at 7000 RPM with a cam change! That's using a stock head!

i'd like to hear what cams are availiable, gains, price etc, and weather they would work with stock ecu.
