This thread is not what the title suggests. I am part of a Bronco II group on facebook and someone asked about getting more power out of a 2.9L. So this guy posted that he rebuilt his 2.9l, had the heads shaved .01 and added free flow 1 3/4 tube headers. He is claiming he got 197 hp and 250 lb ft of torque at 4000 rpm at the wheels on the dyno. I think he is posted some BS, but i am not that knowledgeable with engines that much. Is this even possible? I would think if getting that much power out of 2.9 was that easy people wouldn't swap them out so fast.
