Wow those are nice. I am looking to possibly get my 799's ported. Do you do them as a side project for cash?

Heads have not been milled to my knowledge I can cc test the chambers if you are interested in knowing the chamber volume..

Smile Heads

Dam they are nice. I have a set of 243 heads but they are bolted on my car. Would love to have some hand ported heads. They look like they would flow great and make lots of power.

So heads were on the bench this morning I was pretty happy with the result as was the guy running the bench.. We agreed there is some more flow In The heads after a valve job and some nicer profiled valves also with Some chamber work this would all increase flow at low lift. these heads were 224 cc's and 84 on the exhaust and flowed on a 4 Inch bore port velocity's were very good.. Excuse the pic the heads were dirty the got stained in the ultra sonic cleaner someone put krytox grease in it so the only port I cleaned was the one that was flowed.. We did take a junk exhaust valve and put a small back cut and it hit 303 cfm but we scratched that number since we are only using stock valves.

You can compare them in tony memos thread.. I'd say for the price it's a good deal the exhaust was a little soft IMO but I didn't have a pipe to flow though. The low lift could be improved but that comes with doing a valve job and maybe a little chamber work with in shrouding the valve and adding a nice style valve like a Manley stainless.. But that all come
With money thes are a 40 cfm improvement over stock on the intake at peak lift. On most cams.
