Default A set of my stage 2 317 heads

Attached is the flow sheet from the latest set of 6.0 heads I have done. Not bad for a guy working out of the house Would like to say thanks to Trevor Johnson for all the advice. He has gotten me past a few sticking points that nobody could just "figure out". Not the biggest top end #'s, but they are right off the flow bench and stay consistant from .200-.700.

These are not going on my car, I did them for someone else. The 241 heads on my car flow right at 300 at .600 and 205 at .300. I will get a new dyno number after I put on the fast intake. Right now we will just say around 435whp with a mail order tune. I have another set of 317 castings in my shop and I am going to get alittle more agressive with them and run a 2.05 valve. Shooting for about 320cfm.

Without divulging any secrets, Can you link us to any helpful information you might have? Im planning on doing some DIY 241's over the winter and Ive read everything I could find on this site, and Ive collected a bunch of cross sectional photos of the heads. If you have some extra bookmarks you can pass on, it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
-T

EDIT: Great numbers, by the way. And imitation IS the sincerest form of flattery

Honestly the biggest thing I have going would be destroy several heads and doing R&D. My first 2 full sets of heads were better than stock , but I wouldnt say they rival anyone that sells them regularly. I have done around 15 now and have also had alot of great pro advice. I'll tell you what, I am going to pm you my number and feel free to call me this weekend. I can give you some helpful tips.
