Question Port & Polish?

Mighty - U can always just blueprint the heads by gasket-matching the intake/exhaust runners. No specs necessary there - could even consider Extrude-honing the heads as well as the intake. Then U'd need to modify the fuel system for greater fuel flow to take greater advantage of the changes. An engine's basically just an air pump - the more air U can get in/out, the more power it'll produce. If ya want to know valve sizes, might need to check with Muhammad with SRT or Mike Kilty ( our website head honcho ) as I believe both of them have had the heads off their respective GS4's. In fact, Mike was considering finding a spare GS V-8 & making a stroker motor of it!!:eek:
