improvements that exceed breathability have no benefit

That sounds profound but I respectfully disagree. I know the heads are crappy. They are what they are. I suspect ( don't know of course because I haven't done it ) a 235 compared to a 285 with the same 848 head, will have a way different torque curve with the 285 being much more impressive. It just makes sense, more stroke and more cubic inch makes more torque, even with a crappy head.

I'm not really sold on the idea, it just seems like a reasonable option. Just looking for input and I appreciate your thoughts and comments.

Thanks,
Greg
