Correct except for the fact that your compressions is less than an N/A L36 (L67 = 8.5:1 while N/A is 9.4:1) so your hp would be less. You can get the same affect by taking off your supercharger belt. You will be slower than an L36.

How do you tell a Series I from a Series II? Was 95 and up all Series II?
