Scoggin Dickey CNC Ported Heads
Anyone know how these compare to typical AI/LE or aftermarket heads? Just found them last night...their site does not give any flow numbers...

That is a bit steep on price. You might be able to PM them and see if they will tell you who did the CNC work that might let you find a result for the program. Then again I have my doubts about a good CNC shop being willing to reassemble them with the stock springs without a specific note that they are just there to keep the valves in place because the LT4 springs are nice for a stock cam with 1.6s but not much else and putting those heads on with a stock cam would be the very definition of stupid.

I find it hard to believe they cnc'd a 195cc LT4 head and ended up with a 195cc head. Also, who would put a valvespring on a head like that, that can only handle .525" lift? Those are $40 valvesprings on $2000 worth of cylinder heads.

The heads you speak of have gone 9s in a solid roller motor with aftermarket management and a more race chassis.
I didn't look at the "port size" joelster pointed out, which certainly raises more questions, are they even ported? If they are ported it is just enough of a polish to say they were cnc'd hence the stock volume, was the volume just copied over from the stock head listing by someone who knows more about writing a web page than understanding engines?
If they were well ported with GOOD springs and retainers this could be a reasonable price for new castings, but with the porting in question, the quality of any port work a complete unknown and the stock springs meaning you would have to spend a couple hundred more on that stuff this would not be a good gamble.
Hopefully though your posting here about it will get them to fix the page.
