My 416 gained 80 rwhp going from ported 243's to PRC 247's. Same Dyno, same tuner. only change was heads.

Very Very false.

Going from a 2.02 intake valve that's only 220ccs to a 247cc runner with a 2.120 valve . way more air, way more velocity, way more everything.
also went up .7 in compression with a smaller chamber .

Made 507 with the 243's

,made 585 with the 247's.
