I used M2 to do my Dart 230cc platinums. Took $1500 worth of CNC work to get them to flow the claimed numbers. Mine flow 321@.700 and 333@.800

Why don't you PM Tony Mamo and have him help you out.? If you have the older 11/32" valves he should be able to update you to run the 8mm or 5/16" valves. That there alone should help your flow numbers out a bunch without any more porting.

Tony is a good head porting guy there is a shop we machine Bowtie blocks for out in CA and Tony does his head work on some Broidix heads and told him some tricks to do with the Brodix heads and it pick them up 34 CFM and it picked the 2 barrell circle track engine up 17 horse on the dyno and Tony was amazed.

Tell him Carl Hinkson set you.

Good luck with your build Carl

I'm pretty sure the new "Eliminator" heads use a different Jesel Kit than the old ones. I have a set of KCS-01001 that I'm selling, they are listed in the Jesel catalog as being for SBC 23* heads to include AFRs up to 210cc. A guy with a set of the new 210cc Eliminator heads was going to buy them from me but Jesel told him he needs a different part # as the new heads need a different stand. The part # for the new AFR heads is KCS-314122

Call TEA. Mike will probably answer the phone and he's the guy you want to talk to. He just did a set of TFS 23 degree heads for me and I can't wait to see the results once I get them on my motor. It's not just the flow at .700" and .800" you're looking for. He'll tell you that also and give you a port job that flows excellent numbers and .300", .400", etc. Call him and go fast using their service.
