I recently converted a 750 over to a Proform centerbody($95), it's basically the same center bode as on the HP,
these have removable airbleeds, etc. I found that useful in leaning out the idle circuit to reduce low speed fouling. they advertise 40-50hp increase. My results with a 393C stroker is that it runs some better everywhere, power is same or maybe a little better below 3K, from 4-6K, the 50 hp increase is a joke. I know I'm exaggerating but it seems like at least a 100 more hp! Before the engine was very strong is the 50-75 mph range, now it's down right scary with occasional wheel spin and I'm running a 3.08. A speed shop I use said it's the most positive item he has ever sold, NO ONE has ever been dissatisfied and all are tickled pink and that never happens in the parts arena.
