I have one in mine now, as it was in a parts motor I bought. I dont think its supposed to do anything special, just a replacement. If it improves or changes anything, I havent noticed.

As far as I know the Hot Rod is supposed to be a direct replacement, it's a little more heavy duty than a stocker, but I don't think they claim it will dramatically improve performance at all, just reliability.

ok i didnt really think it gave more power i just figured it might be stornger and lighter. just a better then stock part. thanks
