[DML] Re: PRV Performance - Set me straight please

["Rick" <rdevaux@xxxxxxxxx>]

Gary, The mods I'm going to do are changing my CPR to one that has 
vacuum enrichment, replace my ign distributor with a B28E distributor 
which eliminates the delay solenoid set up, higher compression 
pistons, head porting, B28E cams and headers with a 2.5 inch hi-flo 
exhaust without a cat.  I just want to take what the basic B28 could 
be without going "exotic".  No turbo, no Megasquirt, I want to keep 
it as basic as possible.  I thought the B28E cams and pistons would 
be a good start, keeping the engine stock and dependable.  I also 
want to keep the K-Jet so that when problems with the fuel system do 
develop, they'll be reasonable to deal with.  My engine is rated the 
same as the Delorean, 130 hp.  How are folks, DMUK and DMCH, getting 
their hp boosts from 130 to 150-190?  Are there rising-rate pressure 
regulators available that could be considered?  Thanks very much, Rick
