Default Precision Race Components Head Pics & Detailed Specs

I promised everyone I would post additional pics & specs for both the PRC Stage 1.5 & 2.5 cylinder heads.

First The Chambers:
62cc Chambers CNC'd to 3.900" Bore

Valve Options:
2.02" or 2.04" Intake Valves
1.575 Manley Exhaust Valves (2.5 heads) or 1.55" Truck Exhaust Valves For (1.5 Heads)

This Pic Gives You A Look At Both The 1.5 & 2.5 Chambers With Valves:


Intake Port:
Runner Size 218cc


Exhaust Port:
Runner Size 80cc


Spring Options:
Standard Gold Spring Kit @ 1.800" 135# & 380#
or
Platinum Spring Kit @ 1.7850" 145# & 395#
(Platinum Spring Shown Here-->


We basically went in with the new retainer & gave us a little more pressure so guys can run bigger camshafts, more boost, or more aggressive lobes without risking valve float.

The castings are brand new GM heads that we receive fully assembled & tear down for cnc porting

Lake Wednesday is very good thanks to going in a boat that's not 15 years old! Poor Trevor & Zach was pretty beat up when they got off the tubes!!

I bet, they were talking pretty brave the other day. Glad to hear everyone made it out of the water alive. I'll be back up to get more stuff when the money gets back into my pocket. I will let you know about tuning that 85 vette too. Take care and dont kill eachother. Let me know when ya'll are going to be at Hobbs or Penwell.

Jason,
What's the price on these heads? What's the difference in the 1.5 & 2.5? Just more porting & polishing, thus resulting in better flow? Do these heads raise compression? Would piston to valve clearance be an issue with a big cam? Can these be put on a bigger cubed motor?

So, many heads out there Im kinda stuck as to advantages/disadvantages when it comes to heads.. In the future I was planning on going with a bigger cube motor (once this one blows up or something), so i would like to start buying things for the stocker that i can simple put on the bigger cube motor (and not have to sale and then buy different heads, etc). So, if you can clear this up for me that would be great. Thanks.

The heads are ported the same for 1.5 & 2.5 heads. The only difference is the exhaust valve size

You got it JRP! I need to get the cam doctor specs for each one so we can look at the differences in how the cams are designed.

VERY nice Jason, thanks for the pics!!! I will DEFINITELY come to you in a month or so for my "custom" set I can't wait to see how they will perform, they look amazing from the pics!

How would you compare the Platinum springs you have to the Comp 921's? I run the 921's right now and have been pleased, no breaking them, etc with my X4, and I need that assurance that the spring will hold 7k rpm!

Thanks again for all the help, Jason and their shop is top notch!!!!
