heads

[blkp42e]

im throwing around the idea of getting my twisted wedge heads fixed and ported, or just fixed and sell them to step up to a set of the R series heads.

my stock Twisted wedge ones flow 170cc Intake and the R series flow 205cc intakes.

i know bigger isnt always better, so i dont want to step up to too much of a head for my combo.

stock bottom end with a ported gt40 lower and cobra upper. made 448rwhp on the trick flow heads at 10psi

The 170 cc heads dont flow 170 cfm, that the size of the combustion chamber for each set of heads. The 205cc heads have a 205 intake runner volume, and they flow a good bit more than 205 cfm.
Get your 170cc heads ported by tea or foxlake and you'll make more power than what you'll know what to do with. Rurn the boost up on your current setup & make the extra power, easier & cheaper than doing the heads.
Good luck!!

No offense Jay, but you are not even close to being in the same league as TEA or Fox Lake when it comes to head porting.

Oh, I thought they where doing it by hand. I didn't realize they had a CNC program for his heads.

and Ron at Fox Lake basically invented his heads.

WRONG, 170cc or 205cc is reffering to the port VOLUME, if you had a 205cc combustion chamber your compresson would be like 4:1 with dome pistons, most head have a 60-70cc combustion chamber, and yes the runner volume number is not the amount of flow

Yes, I was typing fast w/ a baby on my lap, I fixed it.
Thanks

Fox lake is getting my TFS heads and intake this winter. If you want, I can take your heads when I drop mine off.

Taking the baby to the track today?

Taking the baby to the track today?

No, he'll be at my Mom's!

Are you goin??

[Rodeheaver's]

I do all my own port work and some for customers, the head on the left is about done, the one on the right is very far away..

You're going to have a major Piston to Valve clearance issue with the bigger valves of the R heads and the stock pistons, so plan on changing out the pistons as well.
