Stroker 340>416 Build Advice
Part two to the OP.
Notice in the video, the Ford vs MoPar 408 shoot out, that the Ford had a bigger cylinder head which allows more air and fuel in for more power.
Below is what happens when you port the cylinder head.
This is why I said that the Edelbrock is good but the TF’s are better (except price, but is it worth it?)
The TF heads are 195cc while the Ford head in the previous video was at 190 and the MP had the 170cc Edelbrock head. I also said that what ever head you get a machinist can check it out and then port it some for added flow. That’s your call but adding flow is power which is seen in the above video above and even more so in the below video.
(Do take note of the intake change.)
Skip to the 12:40 mark or so to see the final dyno run and results.
