Headed to the Dyno. Any guesses?
IMO - you have something amiss there. What did the heads flow?
Didn't have them on the flow bench. Just had the port work done and put them on. I figured it was what it was and thats it. Also, I have to admit that this being the first ground up build for me, I feel like I miss some of the obvious things. I should have had them flow tested. I'm happy with the power in terms of what it means for my car. My only concern would be, do the lower numbers indicate a problem with the motor? Longevity, etc..
Another thing to mention. The manifold was port matched to the unworked heads by original builder. Now that they have been ported, the manifold is no longer matched right?
I think doing some work on the manifold, changing cams and a bit more break in would put me at or just over 550 on hp and tq. I just don't need it. Not yet anyway.Lol
I am still open to thoughts and observations as I know most people were expected higher numbers, as was I.
