Edelbrock head and ported Indy intake

IQ52 said

A few years back Edelbrock was going to send us a set of heads to test and 'work over'. Imagine.....somehow they managed to hang up before getting any of our contact information. I'm sure it worked out for the best. We'd of gotten 'worked over' somehow.

For a head that’s many many years old they don’t work bad but they are what the are. You can only make the short turn so big the way they are made. Controlling 400 FPS across the whole short side is hard to do and results are limited. I hit 318 cfm without moving the pushrod but the intake helped me hit that number and actually raised up because of the intake. Those head ran 10.11 in my sons duster with a 727 at 3250 pounds on a worn out engine. And 9.74 in my duster at 2860 pounds with a powerglide. As you can see the work involved isn’t worth it.
