5.3 Head questions
Are all 5.3 heads the same with regard to I & E sizes? Combustion Chamber CCs? Casting #s? What seems to be the max safe valve lift with flat top pistons @ 112 LSA? Flow #s seem to be the same as #s for 5.7 #853 heads with the larger intake valve. Am I reading that correctly?
Thanks,
Thanks,
