Default lt1 head ???

are these heads to big for a 355 with hotcam and 1.7 rr,s, there cnc ported the intake port measured between 195 to 200 cc,s 2inch intake valve 1.6 I believe on the exaust valve , the guy we bought them from had them on a 383 with a big cam and swapped them out for afr,s , reason Im askin I seem to have lost low end power and is slugish compared to before the swap I would hate to have to swap back on the stockers but I may have to ,,,,,,,,

Those arent outrageous heads, as stated were you tuned for it? The rule of heads is the better the head, the less cam you have to run. The worse the heads the more cam you have to run. Id look into the tune. people use the hotcam in 383s with heads like that with no problems, so I doubt a 355 will have any issues
