OK
I working on a set of 36hp heads and would appreciate a little input.
I'm thinking about moving the port back about 1/4" to get the manifold over the open part of the "Y" in the head, will this hurt flow? I can leave it where it is but will have a little valve cover clearance problem, which is not a big deal since I'm going to make a set of fabricated valve covers.
the port will basicly look a 1600 exhaust port, I'm making a set of intakes that will mount a set of 34mm Weber ICT's
I'm going to install larger valves in the heads, what would be a good size valves for a with 83mm big bore p&c's? I have a set of 38mm x32mm valves with dual springs I'm thinking about using but I think they might be a little big. what would be a good cam for a motor like this? This motor will see very little street use, its a motor I would like to use for the "36hp Challenge" at Bonneville. Thank you for any help.

These are the Black line Racing heads.. Now have moved on to dual port.
Im sure yours will improve flow.. Install bigger valves too! |
