I'm running 191's in my truck and I really like them. My truck is set up hotter than yours is, but I think you would like them.

You are for sure going to blow your head gasket at 50 lbs. The stock head bolts cant take that much pressure. They will stretch and you HG WILL blow. look at DDP DV's. they are supposed to make about 20 HP more than 191's and with less smoke, and less egts.
