I don’t tune into this thread often.The person who provided the J head might have more insight as to what’s going on with them.
Good to see like minded individuals sharing info for the betterment of the hobby instead of attacking and denigrating others in the hobby who view things differently.I don’t tune into this thread often.
I would be the “Rob” he mentions and those are my Magnum and J heads along with the intake and carbs. After meeting Charlie at the MOB meet in Melbourne Fl. (Thanks George Jets for the intro)
Charlie and I yapped it up a good bit and he invited me over. Then invited me back again. The following tests done are for his own knowledge and information gathering as well as my own and in looking at the heads, deciding on what to do with what head.
These heads will not make the MI-318 engine. The MI-318 engine as far as I know and understand are going to use a 318 head. Which exact head, I don’t know.
Any questions?
Thanks. Since he is a Chevy guy and has very limited (read zero for the most part) experience with MoPar heads, it was a good opportunity for him as well as myself to learn something.Good to see like minded individuals sharing info for the betterment of the hobby instead of attacking and denigrating others in the hobby who view things differently.
You've just earned yourself a week's vacation!
It's good to do interesting things with like minded people, and also it seems, make a good friend in the bargain. That's one of the best things about hot rodding.Thanks.

Charlie has been a most stand up fella and we do think along the same lines. We’re both interested in engine performance and experimenting. We both hewed the fat rod a king time telling stories of the fun, nutty and crazy thing we did in figuring out how stuff works and reacts. Trying to dig a little deeper than most of the car guys we know.
He has a big leg up on me since I have not sat down and fully ported a cylinder head. While I’ve done some work & that would be light by compare, he dived deep and went to see DV and learned from him. So he is a good bit in front of me! LMAO!
More tests to come, different heads on deck and when the other heads are finished with. Charlie and I will be having some fun together for a while here on the heads alone. We may very well be covering ground already covered by others, but I haven’t specifically seen any tests on YouTube on MoPar heads I have. I’m sure a few fellas here have done what we will cover in their own shops and garages. They will be bored, this that haven’t will probably like it. For those that have never seen it or have no info on it, I’m sure they will appreciate it.
Stay tuned to our YT channels.

Eofs?In regards to the 7## w2 commentary.. Throat doesn't need to be big on the exh.
It needs to be shaped right, a radiused throat is what you want. Pressure expands. Eofs.
