Speedmaster Small block porting tips and results Part 1
Ohhh well back to the flowbench. I really didn’t want to get sucked into getting crazy on these but I gotta give the intake side one more attempt before I throw them on a shelf. I’m at
[email protected] but only
[email protected] lift. Floor work needed but it’s begging for a 2.05 valve.
When it comes down to it, those who go deep...end up at the floor. Iirr... in this very thread, a certain someone spoke against it.
Fact is..the angles of approach are many and differ from others even... there is no set way and working floor is what it takes, leveling it across and evening up the distance..and lowering it sometimes.
I had a guy in another thread talk a bunch garbage about it... and the sad thing about it is.... it was over a slant 6 head where there really isn't much material in the roof everything is mostly gained by opening the bowl and laying the short turn back far into the floor halfway or more of the port...then coming in the port window side and cutting straight in lowering the floor, ramping it down a hair..getting the line of sight.
With any head.. there is a threshold...in order to breakthrough that threshold...you have to push harder and make area, even.. ..If the turn is shaped right...lowering the floor,to a point ,will only gain more flow IF its straightening the line of sight and more so feeding greater volume to the ssr..it really depends of course.. Many iron heads are just too small port volume wise.... anyways..
Great thread. I'm I'm trying to only check it out every couple days if I can I just want to see what happens with your progress and not read all the other crap from everyone else. LOL some of this stuff is just a repeat, people should know it, like some people had Amnesia or something. Not to vere off too hard on this but was it only a few months or year back people were really skeptical over these heads n now they're one of the greatest heads ever? Evolution...of the skptic..that's badass lol..
