looks sweet! what kind of cyl. heads you using?

70' · 06-18-2016, 10:23 AM

They are cast heads with the big breather valves in them. Didn't really need to run aluminum to get to those numbers.

Air gap intake

Ok guess I should have been more specific. What casting # heads,oval/rectangular port? I'm in the process on putting together another set of 353049 oval ports. I read you put(big breather valves) in are they bigger than 2.19/1.88's .I would like to try and stuff 2.25 intake valves in this set , but hesitant?

I have a set of Trick Flow 340 Rectangular ports that I'm not using if anyone wants to go hardcore!

Redline novdog · 06-20-2016, 04:49 PM

Not Quite sure why your not using those. look very good. I have not gone into the 6,000 rpm plus on a big block yet so don't really need the rectangle ports. Someone else might be drooling though! I'm after house and stump pulling torque!

This was for screaming power at the top end on a 500+ inch motor with a blower, definitely a different application! I'd recommend oval ports for 95% of applications too.

Sorry for high jacking your thread,but love those big block Chevy's. still wondering what casting and valve size?? if it's a secret then tell me so!
As for PTC I have ridden in a flat bottom v-drive with a healthy SBC ! like riding a paddleboard with a nitro blown Hemi.That swimsuit was ruined!
