The heads I am referring to all had 2.20-2.250 intake valves. It seems like the 2.300 intake valves really picks up some power.
Thank you for sharing that info. It seems like the outlier heads are cnc and in addition hand ported to breach the 400cfm mark.
Of course there are people out there that claim 5,000,000 CFM from their Edelbrock RPM castings. Most of those combinations never make it to a track.
I think you need at least a 4.400" bore to go .800 net lift with a 2.30" intake.
All of my junk is 4.375" bore and 4.25/4.15" stroke.
I keep saying the last 400 block was my last stock block deal. Then I buy another 400 block.
