My P&P Head Work!

Had my 243 heads ported and polished by a local guy and they turned out real nice.
Both heads milled .040 with competition 3 angle back cut with throat cut on both ends.

Heads flowed on a 4.025 slider plate mated to a 3.900 bore.

Here are the flow numbers:
.200: 153.6
.300: 223.1
.400: 265.7
.450: 290.4
.500: 311.0
.550: 322.0
.600: 328.3

Yeah I got one hell of a deal, can not complain. Ready to bolt-on too. I dont know the exact details of the flow bench but he had just bought a new one and got it setup and I was the first test subject for the new bench. The guy who did them went to school in Houston for this kind of work. Ill see if I cant pull up more info when I get home from work.

The Weiand Intake I opened to 85mm in the opening. Surprisingly the Intake matched almost perfect to the new heads. I will eventually change intakes after I complete the rest of my build.

Ahh im not sure, I had them done at the end of summer so its been a awhile. I think he said the chambers where like 62cc. But that's all I got as far as numbers.
