    hi, can you explain C4 or C5? i think i have a 200 hp 2.4 200 hp the previous owner said it was put on a 150 midsection and serial numbers say 150hp but i am getting only 74 mph on a Valero Vee Stream, what do you think stock heads were if motor is 86-88? and are 150's diff. from 200's and did they use different tuners? i think more compression is good, i have sorta fresh powerhead that has mid 130 psi on all 6. but someone said it gives more mid range but usually no more top end? ur thoughts?
    thanks, JIM
