[DML] Re: 170 HP DeLo

Martin -- double check your HP numbers again. If you're still running
8.5:1 heads with original cams and valves, sincerely doubt merely
changing fuel metering and ignition curve adds more than 10+ HP to
DeLo engine.

B280 was massive PRV redesign to get to 170 HP. Way more than
difference between B27/B28 or E/F series.
