Suggestions for new design Aluminum Mopar SB clean slate (kind of) cylinder heads
Fact is you would need to offer an intake and rocker system to make a better/the best head. If we know raising the roof is necessary.. then generally it would need a raised runner , at the least , and that's an intake manifold requirement right there. If it were oval port.. do we want one option or two? Typical W2 is 185cc? Typical w2 has a partially fkd up bowl as cast, so fix that 'more meat in the bowl' . For instance non offset taller oval port 195cc ootb 320 cfm version for a nice 4" motor...maybe a smaller one 180cc 'more meat in bowl taller port' ootb 290 cfm version for street 340/360. Is the production of the rocker system more costly than casting new manifolds? Would one do/be effective enough over utilizing both?
How big, or small for that matter. The rhs la max worked well, just heavy and the intake port could have been a little bigger to get into the 320cfm range...but for it's size it was a good performance head.
Speed master aluminum ends up near 185-190 after goin through the motions .
