How do you think these heads would work with a 231-237 .595/.598 spec cam. The exhaust flow is a little behind the competition but I think the extra duration will help that. You can't beat the price, but I don't know much about them.

Ive not problems with mine. But P2V clearance is a lot less with these than many other heads, so you will need to check or notch pistons etc.

I am running them with a Futral F14. I really like the heads. They flow the same as the 225s up until .600 lift when the 225s just keep climbing. I do not have any issues with them and they are a great head for the price.

I am running them as well. Good and light valves, the valve springs are super made by PSI, they are nitrided and use a very light (6.6 gms) titanium retainer and machined locks.

PTV is only around .015" worse than a stock 67cc 2.00" valve 241 head. Considering you now have a 2.02" valve and a 62cc chamber it's worth the swap to me. You wouldn't have any PTV issues with that cam you're describing.
