Thanks for the input I plan to get the head from Thumper Performance, I've heard very good things about his products here on NAM so I'm pretty sure the head will be top class

I'd really like to get RMW's Jesus head but I fear the valves might be too big on a N/A cooper so I talked with Mike from TP some months ago and after a while and some emails exchanged we agreed on the specs for the new head, when the time will come, considering that I use my car mostly on street. On the camshaft, I'll have to see how the RMW one is, and consider it instead of Schrick, but I fear it might be too track oriented, again because I use my car mostly on the street.

Well, I guess 125/130 whp wouldn't be bad at all either, also considering that N/A Coopers weight significantly less than the S cars so the hp/weight ratio might get interestingly close to them even with 130whp...

We will just have to wait and see
