Are the areas you're pointing out unusually thin? How does this head compare in material thickness to the 241 and 243 castings that we've been running for years?

I have some extra stock heads I can cut apart for comparison if you have no data on those.

I wonder did you do some specific cross section area measurements to share with us. =)

that looks very nice as stock head.. nice straight runners, nice shortside, nice chamber.
Have you done any port mappings with stock head in flowbench, how busy runners does it have as stock?

W2W siad they would not recommend the stock rockers with anything over 200psi on the seat

The Jessel L92 rocker kit The part number for the kit is K2A-2102122.
