Steve--see also August 1956 Sports Cars Illustrated "More Horses for the
Healey." Article claims "...60 to 70 percent addition al horsepower..."
Maybe.  I'd like to hear from someone who has actually done this kind of
modification.  See also R&T  March 1956.    John Trifari   BN1/BJ8

The magazine being discussed was Road & Track. I used to own it years ago
when I was into Alfas and no longer have it.

The Time frame was late '50s.

 

The article was something to the effect of "Making Your Healey Faster Using
GM Parts". They also used Chevy valves, I think.
