BYE BYE Cam Only.............

more bad news, when installing new metal header gaskets, the one header bolt broke inside

so now i cant go for the cam only list, and i didnt make it onto the SI list soo its kinda a bummer. im not gonna take the heads off again to stay cam only, unless a great deal falls in my lap.

but i guess the good news is that im going to get 243 castings and port them and have a H/C setup now.

Good luck with the head swap man. I did the ported 243's and they're pretty good

Is that the excuse you're telling your wife, instead of just re-tapping?

I would go with a different set of heads but either way you should fly! That stock internal time is insane!

Well, I might be going with some higher compression heads if you wanna grab these Absolute Speeds from me.
