Right now I'm running .506 intake and .513 exhaust. That's assuming the 1.5 rocker ratio. May go bigger if I put a better short block together. Are W2's worth bolting on without doing some port work? The ones I have are ported.. they should be 300- 305 cfm

The EQ's do require Magnum rocker gear right? Robert if I every get some gears for the big track I'll bring the Plymouth to I-80 and let you know. I mite be able to do a race at eagle with what I have for gears Yes & they might be NS1. better yet is chebby studs/rockers/rocker balls & maybe drill the stands out to 3/8. I have the part #'s a guy said would be a nice set to go with but I cant find it at the moment. I do have some 5:57's in an A body 8&3/4 (deep enough!) & I have some 6:20's not setup yet, just a R&P.

Thinking about new heads for my classic stockcar. Current heads are production 360 units with very minimal work. Valve tips vary about .100 in height and instead of freshening them up i'd replace them. Rules say they must be iron. no mention of valve size or porting in the rules so anything goes I guess. Motor is low compression 360 with Hughes whiplash cam and its very competitive when the tracks are less then perfect. I turn the motor 6,000 rpm at most. Thinking a set of EQ's. Any other thoughts? W2 would be nice but we have a intake height rule and I'm not sure budget would allow them anyway. With those limitations, wanting to use your existing valve train over again, and a tight budget, I would buy a set of LA 915 casting heads from Indy ($500), and port the poop out of them. Still might want to consider going to Magnums though - and porting the poop out of them.
Fastest 300

You also need guides, Chevy will work but a little wide, about the cut off grinding wheel width, then hardened push rods for the guides, they make a 3/8 stud with a 5/16 thread. Had all his sorted out then just bought the factory kit.

My petty w2-s show 312@600 with a 2.055 intake.
Whats the street dominator look like? Unless your going for the wow factor a simple single with your non ported heads I think would get you more power in the area you want it for a street thrasher.

Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston

Those pics are from when I got them, now the just have a std. 3 angle job.
I found those heads, well the whole motor apart on CL out of FL and got it all for $1100 plus the freight.... A decent score. That's better than a decent score.

You also need guides, Chevy will work but a little wide, about the cut off grinding wheel width, then hardened push rods for the guides, they make a 3/8 stud with a 5/16 thread. Had all his sorted out then just bought the factory kit. Is there a complete kit of these parts or do you piece it together with the level of quality that you need for your particular app?

If you notice the intake runners sit above the valve cover rail.. on a lot of the W-2 intakes you have to cut that lip down on the intake.. if you dont you will see that the valve cover will sit on that and not seal on the valve cover gasket... I forgot to mill mine down on my 416 W-2.. at first I thought it was leaking at the rear some where... was the valve cover not sitting down.. just looking at it I figured it was just clearing but it wasnt when I torqued down the cover EDIT This mainly occurs when you cut the block,and heads which brings the rail in closer to the center line of the engine

I had the very same issue when I put the current intake on the motor. Doesn't take long to make a nice mess. You got that right.. I had a slight seep/leak that ran down to the back then down the side of the bell housing area.. I noticed a small puddle on the edge of the intake and figured it out... and I use the reverse lip valve covers
