Some detail pictures here:

And from the pictures that have been posted above for it, I have to say that Edelbrock apparently took making one new SBM Victor head a lot more seriously than they did w/ their BBM Victor head...
Fixed
lol
Yea, I have seen the other thread, just wondering if anyone got anymore information on the heads other than what was on the placards on the stands they were on like a release date or price?

Between the different valve angle and the 2.15 intake valve size i thing sales will be low if they ever do come out.
true I guess as a bolt on deal...but maybe not if you are building a motor around them

Sounds like Edelbrock had some rent a reps (like rent a cops) for special events coverage. And the guy was obviously un-educated about anything not shivy related. Hey just sayin... call it like it is.
I met him at a chassis shop a few miles down the road, he was driving a Silverado with the Edelbrock supercharger kit, fancy jacket and shirt, watch, the whole 9 yards. Maybe he just didn't know about them

Custom pistons would be your only option and valve to bore ratio kinda leans toward an aftermarket block with a big bore. If that's the case why not go W8 or W9.
Because these will fit on a 59 degree block, use commercially available headers, and appear to use single shaft rockers.
The price of a custom piston upgrade is a drop in the bucket compared to needing headers built, 48 degree block, and T&D rockers.
The problem is that there really doesn't need to be any better 59 degree heads until someone builds an affordable block to go with it.

Valve to bore size.
VALVE / BORE Ratio
The valve to bore ratio should be: 52-52.5% of the bore for Wedge heads. 53-53.5% for Canted valve, rotated canted valve (Mopar P/S hemi) and true Hemi. If you decrease intake exhaust ratio down to 70-71% you can move both intake and exhaust valves over to the exhaust side and increase intake valve size by .5-1%.
Anytime you increase valve size over the above stated Valve/Bore ratio you will see a small gain in CFM but the discharge coefficient drops and takes your power with it. An over shrouded valve instills a host of nasty scenario's, the two worst being decreased discharge coefficient and increased reversion below and above intake tuned power band. (according to Darin Morgan)
1970 Duster Edelbrock headed 408 5.984@112.52 422 Indy headed small block 5.982@112.56 mph 9.42@138.27
