im speaking from real world experience, you will NOT gain 60hp just by adding a 4bbl. there has to be some other difference. that is approximately a 35% gain in hp, over a 1/3 increase in output. sorry you just don't get those numbers in the real world with nothing more then a carb swap.
now, im not saying the rating on the 200hp wasn't low, or maybe the 260hp was a shade exaggerated, maybe even they were rated at different rpms, which i have seen to fool the epa, who knows? but to say you add 60hp with a 4bbl upgrade is just plain wrong.
