317s are like 76cc or something right? I know the 317s lower your compression ratio like almost a point.

317 have D Exhaust port like ls6/243 heads and 72cc chamber
flow more than 241
241 have 66cc chamber, flow less than 317 O exhaust port
both use 2.00 intake and 1.55 exhaust valve

Nemess just said it, 317's are good for a turbo, supercharger or big engines since they are 72cc heads, 241 would be better for CR on LS1
