Thats a big intake runner for 346 cu in. With that cam my guess is it will be very slow off the line and a complete dog til about 4500 rpms. Just a guess.

It depends on how much air the 230cc head can move effectively. If it can only moe 290 cfm, then it's liable to be a dog till the upper rpm's, but if it can move 330 cfm, then you may have something. Telling us what heads you are talking about might be more effective as far as answers go.

As for the All Pro's, yes, we've heard of them. There more popular with the big motor/Forced induction crew. There a big money head seeings how they need to be worked after the initial purchase.

Well, that won't help much. A detailed flow sheet, and more importantly, the brand or porter would be very helpful. If someone is trying to sell you these heads, and all they know is the runner size, you may want to look elsewhere.
