Long valves on W2's with .600 lift?
That Howards grind is closer to what I would have expected for your heads .
I agree. I said what I said on speed talk and Jones ran his mouth and pissed me off.
I can tell you my DECADES of testing do not match his, and I'd bet everything I have I spent more time screwing with heads that break over than even he has.
I can made any head ANY head go turbulent. I'm also positive that 28 inches isn't the full picture of port testing.
I'm running more lift on a STREET grind than Krooser is going to run on a RACE engine. And I don't have W2 heads on this engine, AND I still have my original W2 heads that broke over at about .620 lift. Those heads made more power and went quicker going from the Harold Brookeshire max lift of .640 to a Cam Motion grind with .080 more lift and 10 degrees less timing on the intake and 12 less on the exhaust.
BTDT. Brookshire and I had several heated conversations over his absolute ignorance about lift, port turbulence and horsepower, specifically related to Chrysler engines.
That's why I stopped using his cams. Not near enough lift and too much duration to try and cover up the lack of lift.
Ironically, if you look at his VooDoo lobes. They now have much more lift than much of his earlier stuff.
Maybe the light came on.
