The Reground Intake gives you the most additional power....not so much the Reground Exhaust....but let

Maybe a bit rougher idle (depends if you Regrind BOTH Intake and Exhaust), no appreciable difference in fuel mileage (maybe a bit less), No Broken Parts. Watch carefully when installing Reground Cams regarding Lifters and Camshaft Timing as suggested

GO TO GUY on Camshaft Regrinds as he has proven in his 1/4 mile times
