Last night my Indy SR heads droped a valve seat which broke the valve and piston. I am now in the market for a new set of heads among other parts. My SRs worked very well after Nick at Comp U Flow ported them but I think it is time to move on and try a new head.
I am looking at Indy 440-1s B-1 BS or Edelbrock Victors.These heads will be on a 499 low deck motor in a tube chassis 69 Dart. With the SR heads I was running low 5.70s in the 1/8th mile.
All suggestions and opinions appreciated.
Thanks, Joe




I would go with the -1's. Last set I ported we used a 2.25 intake valve and they flowed around 370's @ .700 and 390 @ .900.
The victors are a great head when ported but I have not had the oppurtunity to push that casting much so not sure it would be alot better but maybe?
