Plus the extra cooling holes around the plugs 'as per 452 motorhome heads' too.

I did run this engine in the 90's at the famous 'Santa Pod raceway' UK.
But the valves were way too short for any 'meaningful' camshaft use, best was a 509 DC hydraulic.

Then I found out the valves had been 'remade' by a previous owner at standard 440 length which was 0.250 too short!
So now I have had some longer valves made so I can use 2.000'' valves springs and a 0.650 roller.

Folks have been wanting to know what flow they have?
Don't actually know this fact as all the paperwork was lost when Weslake Engineering 'shut-down'.

I guess around 300cfm's as they are 'rough cast' and will need some port work to get the best outta them?

The rumour was they were in 'hemi-territory' as a replacement when the Hemi got banned in Nascar?
The Wingcars and other issues of the early 70's put paid to much of mother Mopars development work... fan

Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero, thanx Horace!

There’s no point trying to fix stuff that ain’t broke,,, 'but if ain’t broke',,, you is not trying hard enough...
