Dart 205's on a 408?
 

are these to small? I have them already, if money was no object I'd spring for some TFS 235's and mill them down to 64cc.

these are BONE STOCK darts, I would of course have them cleaned up a bit, which I have heard makes a drastic difference with these heads.

rest of the setup

SCR 12:1
DCR 8.55:1

iron block
4.030 diamond 6cc dish
callies compstar rods
callies compstar crank
248/252 .625/.625 112 +2
HS rockers
morel lifters
fast 90/90
42lb inj.
Meizere EWP
TSP 1 7/8" headers
TSP true duals w/ bullets

what kind of power could I expect to make with these heads? or will it just choke the motor ?

I also plan on a healthy shot of spray on top...2 stages.

The 225's are a much better choice on a 4.0" bore.

well aware of this....just wondering how much some worked over 205's will hurt this setup...what kind of power could I expect to make?

Chad

There are a couple of place that can make these work, but as they stand I think they would hold back a motor that size.

such as ?

I know of brett bauer is a big porter of darts.

Chad

That is one person who I had in mind although he prefers the 225's as the starting point but he would be worth contacting.

Tough spot. If the rest of your setup didn't look so nice I would say get a VJ and run them......Damn.....Maybe see if you can get a deal on some used AFR 225's and sell the Darts......Or a new set of Dart 225's are reasonable but sometimes they need a lot of VJ work as is so.....I dunno.....

I'm really thinking about just biting the bullet, saving up some more dough and getting the right heads...TFS 235's milled :devil:

but then that brings up another question...I know alot of guys mill these heads down and don't suffer any loss of flow, but how low is "to low" ?

Chad

In the long run TFS will not disapoint you. This way you will never be second guessing yourself or be dissapointed when you get your timeslip. Smart move:D Believe me that SUCKS!!

Im sure he does awesome work.. He wanted 2G's to do my 205's, at that cost, and the cost I paid for them you could get a really top notch set of heads.

yeah I hear you...just makes the build more and more $$$$$$$$$$

Jesus!, like you said for that money I could go buy some TFS's and a 90/90 almost.

FMS does some work to them as well... The quoted a little lower but still too much for the HP I would pick up.
