The power definately is improved. you will feel a quicker throttle response and more power as you go through the gears. It doesn't give you much more top end (if you could do 70mph stock - you can now do about 80mph).
The steep hill issue is all up to how you wheel. You can turn the carb 180 degrees and then you will only bog going down steep hills, but it's easier than trying to get up a waterfall while the carb is popping.
As I have said in other posts, If your going to spend the money, time and effort - you will get better performance, fuel economy and pure power from a Harley conversion. And... it will run at ANY angle.
