well there is first of all a 0.05 difference in hp. stock=2.90 and tuned=2.95 you may think that is a small difference but its actually a big difference. also on the head of the tuned 359 it is writen TUNED!!!, also the differences are on the crankcase which is reworked and the sleeve

I also think tuned means the best parts off the assembly line are picked for these motors because,

.05 is so marginal its actually only a 1.72% increase, (.05 / 2.90) * 100 = 1.72

Id still rather have a tuned version then stock.
