I'm not interested in this unfortunately, but I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this. Could it be that the Beta head is the downfall of why it is tough to gain hp N/A??

That could be possible, silver. Or it could just be the design of the engine. Won't hurt to try, though.

The head does rather suck... however most of the people that have had headwork done on the Beta only got a 3-5whp out of it. I doubt most members here would find 5whp for 500-600 bucks practical. ;( You can always try though.

100$/whp is not a bad deal when going N/A....3-5whp is probably on a bolt-on setup...with cams/pistons, i am sure those figures would go up.

I am interested but i am affraid of the shiping cost. Get pricing info.

True, don't know of anyone here that is running high cams or pistons though. I'll try and get on HP later on and see what Red was running and the others as well when they reported those gains. And what exactly was done to get those gains. HP is a pain to search through though.
