Post Installed Iron Mountain Heads today....
I had lost a lot of compression in cylinder #1 and after trying to to get it fixed and failing, I decided to cut my losses and go with the BPS recipe. I was very impressed with the quality of the work. I went ahead and added the BPS Rockers as well.

So my engine today has a Mikuni HSR 42, Iron Mountain Heads, BPS Rockers, Gecker's dual exhaust, Gecker's cam and a modified stock intake. After installing the heads I did not notice any bottom end improvement, but definite improvement on load carrying and top end. the test run was with me 175, buddy 275 on a center console rig with full blind still attached, etc- definitely not a light load- speeds were pretty good IMO- 29.5 into the wind and 30.3 in a calm section. We hit 30.6 on a mud flat. It was by far the best my boat has ever run. I figure the extra weight from the blind, extra material, and extras in the boat weigh around 350-400 pounds.

Pretty solid. The blind is getting ready to come of, and I will take all of the extra blind material out of the boat as well, which includes 5 panels of fast grass stored in the bow..... I was very happy.
