I can only post the parts that will be going together, not any actual results from using them.

i used the m/w victors with the super victor manifold on my 528ci. you'll have to spend some time enlarging the holes where the pushrods go thru the heads. put dummy springs on the heads so you can cycle the engine and you will see where the holes need clearancing. i used the t&d rockers and they worked out really nice. also buy the studs from indy to hold the rockers down. they are a full 1" long to give full thread engaugement. i'd use them again. if you start going over .700 lift, things get tricky. good luck witch ever way you go.

Here's a thread documenting the build of my mw victor motor.
Maxwedge victor build
Dyno results

Race weight is 3530 and it's gone a best of 9.92 @ 135.
Never touched the tune since the day we dyno'd it,
so should be some more left in there.
Most likely won't be trying much until next year
when I should have more time for the car.
Haven't had it out since last November.

What size engine? Also did you just use the victor valley tray with the 337 intake?

I'm doing the MW Victor thing as well, Got the heads.

Not sure what size engine as I'm torn between winding it hard with a 470 or just going 512+ either on a B based block.

We built one maniily from left over parts when the Victors first came out. It was a 440 block with 4.15" stroke, flat top pistons and 12:1 CR, pump gas. Comp Cams 283/.683" roller cam, victor intake and a 1050 dominator. The ehads were home ported and since at the time there were no rockers available, we used Indy 440-1 rockers. They fit with minor grinding. The engine was in a 3200 lbs '69 Valiant with SS springs and run a best of 10.08/137 mph. The drivetrain also consisted of leftover parts and the engine was never really tuned, so it propably was never fully sorted out. Afterwards teh engine went in to a SC dragster, and it runs the same speeds as the common chevy revivals and has won one national championship.

Victor, standard port with 11.2:1. Victor intake 1050 Quick Fuel carburetor. Roller cam 275/282 @.050 & about 0.660 lift. Hughes rockers, pump gas, 10.03 132.55 in a 3280 pound Duster. 451 low deck. Pro Parts headers and they fit very well. Looks like I guessed about right to keep away from some of the requirements to run 9's.

While the Victor is a good head,wouldn't it be easier to use an Indy MW head? I don't think the Indys require the fancy offset rockers...

Fully CNC ported max wedge victors running comp cam 23-707-9 roller. heads flow numbers are 372 @ 700 lift. using Hughes 1.6 rockers. chambers are 70cc and 13.5 to 1 compression running on methanol. indy intake with 1050 dom. and 2 inch adapter. Hughes did all the port work. the combo works ok for me, car weights 3450 in race trim.

Id rather not give anymore business to indy if I don't have to! That's just my

And what is so fancy about offset rockers? You can buy the expensive ones but hughes engines also makes a set that are very reasonable.
