pretty sure you guys don't and play by play activities by me , but I'm compelled to update. Ordered the heads from Jegs last night. Took the pistons and rods to get swapped out to Tim Wilkerson's machine shop this morning. His shop boss said he'd try to have them done by Friday.

Más fuerte siempre es mejor = Stronger is always better. Heads coming soon

And that's exactly what I'm talking about.

And Shorty can live with that. Not to be a Debbie Downer, but! 11.0-1. is " not ! " what I want, at all. Got a couple things I'm looking at getting done to [ hopefully !!!!!! ] give you guys more input.

Well. I got .025 with the 383 piston when I checked it. The tech also recommended a .050 composite head gasket to keep CR around 10.5-1. Now if he's wrong, and your right! Then yeah me. Because that's a win/win for me.

Can't tell you what I don't know. This is my " first time " I can say this " Tech said .050 Gasket thickness and said that would give a head chamber of .078 cc. Piston CC I am clueless. The others I am clueless. That's why I came in here . For guidance.

No! And the tech at Jegs was told this.

Me. I do since I figure you can be trusted not to lead me astray. Either your credible, or , your not. Which is it?

What specs do you want? 1969 383, punched .070, pistons Silvo-lites 1276's @ from what I'm told CR is suppose to be around 8.5, from what I just looked up it's 8.0. Now mind you that's with a 440 block. I'm not using a 440 block however. I'm using a Lo-block 383 with stock 383 crankshaft. I'm...

273, he said he grabbed his calculation charts and calculated 10.5-1 up to 11.0 to 1 with the pistons I plan on using. No zero decking mentioned. That blew my mind. Literally. Was not expecting that at all.

Yes, Jegs Stealth heads. Absolutely blew my mind. He suggested a .050 head gasket as well. Just blows my mind.

Brandon? I got a g'son named Brandon. He ain't touchin nuttin!!!!!!!!!So whose doing the blending?

Alright gentlemen, let's not get a pissin match started here. Okay! This is my thread and all I'm askin is guidance. I called Jegs today and had a nice little chat with the tech department. 10+-1/ 11-1 compression ratio with the pistons I got now!!!!! Gentlemen. I never in my life ever...

The ones I just looked at are over $1500. and I'm assuming that's for a set. I'll be checking Monday.

Alright then fisherman67. Who does the bowl blending?

Careful sonny. Checked out and looked at , at my age could mean the same thing. Okay! Patience. Patience.

Then I'm headed back to take a look.

Just happens to be the heads that I was looking at.

https://store.440source.com/Stealth-Aluminum-Cylinder-Head-COMPLETE-SINGLE-HEAD/productinfo/200%2D1055 This head?

Gentlemen, then suggest a head and let's see if I can go that way or not.

Then suggest a head. Let's see what happens.

Alu- min-ium heads are so,,,, costly. Tell me true. Are they worth the money, seriously?

Okay update time. I have 2 sets of 906 heads, and 1 set of 516 heads. Suggestions?

Kim, just get a ,060, 440 slug and be .135 over.

You guys are awesome, truly awesome. Makes me wanna jump right up and spend a bunch of money, but not just yet. I got 3 sets of heads that I have to make/take a stand on which set to go with, or look for another set.

I had to stop and think about who you were for a minute, but I quickly realized who you are. Hope ya don't mind . Research here is a must.

Right now , I got 3 sets. I'll have to look at what I pulled off the 440 before I would say what they were.

What's your thoughts about the 906 heads? I thought they were brought up in here somewhere, but as luck would have it, I couldn't find . Heck, maybe I'm wrong. I uploaded the 906 head I took off the 383. I think you'll look in disbelief. Block's not cracked, heads not cracked, Valve didn't go...

Lemme take a look, Okay! Back! Nice looking heads , that's not a bad price either. Does the factory rockers & shafts bolt on, or does anyone know?

What head would you recommend then?
