No worries, it's all good!

I should have said "Has ANYBODY....but I know Vic (to name just one) is very experienced with finding potential in that Manifold.

I think a ported Victor should flow well in excess of 300cfm on an ~ equally flowing head, the runners are generous and fairly short which is usually advantageous on long stroke combos or short strokers at High RPM. The only thing it seems to want for is a bit more plenum volume.

I've ported several of them over the years, As cast the runner transitions from the plenum need a fair amount of work but they come around great after 'whittling', I actually opened it up a bit more than with my SDSS Stage 2's. My new heads flow ~310 even with my little 'broomstick' roller, I still think the old Vic 340 will be better overall than the SV in terms of peak power (though maybe not necessarily
for peak midrange torque).




I LIKE that word "whittling". I did a lot of whittling to my Super Victor just to get it decent enough to run. I have to take it off over the Winter to "clearance" it a little more on the outside so I can use the set of fab valve covers I bought off ebay so I will play with it again. Its really a shame how bad some of this stuff is out of the box.
