Message: okay my last post didnt get answered so im going to try again. I have a 2002 R/T cc and I want to put an M1 with a set of 1.7:1 roller rocker arms on. I was wondering what kind of power increases I can expect from these mods. Also what about porting my tb, is it worth the time and effort. any help would be great. what the hell is a "turtle", what does it look like. I know its supposed to help with low-end. does it work.

Message: I'll do what I can to answer so you get more of a response than that of some of the lurking trolls. I can't offer any hard numbers on the 360 but when I put an M1 on my 318 I picked up a pretty fair amount of power from about 2K up. I don't feel I lost much torque in the bottom end.
As for the rockers, I may be mistaken, but even if you go with 1.6 rockers I believe you will get about 15 HP more due to the reduction in friction.
A ported throttle body can help, I ported my own as well as doing some machining on it. Another idea would be to pick up a nice billet 50mm unit and put it on at the same time as the M1. You would probobly get a decent increase with that motor.
A turtle is a little pyramid shaped thing that goes into the intake manifold to better direct air into the runners. No offense to those who have them, but untill I see hard numbers, I won't put one in. I have heard some reputable people say they didn't see an improvement on the dyno. Hope this helps.
