Only if you're planning a misdirection, which is probably what this post is.
If you mean not for the weak of heart then it's faint.
But hey, language, who give a darn. I'll blither and let you figure it out.
Quote:I would go with alum stealths but you said iron. 915's would let you get quench which would let you support a much higher CR on the exact same fuel but are a bit scarce & therefore pricey, 906's are common but you'd have no quench, as double R stated the 516's need to be ported correctly with some one who has experience with that particular port shape to get the most out of them and they are cheap & the closed chamber would let you set up for quench. IF the cc's of the 516's and the stealth's are very close you would be able to switch at a later date & keep your CR right where you want it EDIT forgot that the alum wants a higher CR so disregard that last sentence
I would like to build a stout street mauler

I am amazed sometimes to the responses I get asking these green horn questions but i dont mind II will keep asking until I get the answer I want to hear! I have both 915s and 906s which way would you go and why?

Alright-you see I knew I would get a decent answer! Ok now how would you build it? Im will be installing 2.14/1.88 valves and a bowl blend would be in good order too! And the rest of the engine...

I love it when people fish for answers .
you have both heads , you want to run cast iron heads , ignore the get alum heads , USE THE 915's , prop a door open wit hthe 906's , it's really that simple ... really
Can you say quench?

How stout of a motor are you looking for?
What car you dumping it in?
Mine is 915's and runs well. Idles well. Would do well in a street car(I street drive mine)
Home ported 915's with STOCK valve size. fairly mild, but massaged.
440 .030 over with 6 pack slugs
10.6:1 comp
242 @ 50 hydrualic racer brown cam
1.6/1.5 combo roller rockers
eddy rpm manifold
750 mighty demon
3400 stall 9" converter
373 gears.
junkyard headers
3" exhaust back to the flowmasters, and 2.5" tail pipes after that
mopar electronic distributor, with aftermarket fbo ign box
Holley blue pump with 1/2" supply line to dual feed -6 lines from the reg to the carb.
As it sits now, my best pass is in the sig line. The car was a little lighter a few years back(added a dana and a second battery) so it was as fast as 11.70 then(still the same motor, converter, etc). Still over 3800 pounds even then.
FWIW, I ran the same motor with a set of 452's that I ported(in the same way the 915's are), and stock rockers, and it was 7 tenths slower.

Yes Ron's is another great example of a mean, iron 440.
And your car is a great running iron head basic 440.

Quote:To add to that I ran a stock .150 holed 440 with 906's and a .528 in a 3650lb 64 Pol to a 12 flat. Mind you it had a5500 stall. The thread is in archives under smogger 440s.Quote:

Thank you Dave.
