Porting small block 915 j-heads

Oceanside sounds wonderful indeed!

Do you know Gary Pavlovich in San Diego?
He has been a wealth of knowledge with our 402ci Poly build.
He supplied us with everything we needed for a 400hp engine.
Just one head casting for a Poly lol...

11/32 stemmed 'cut down' custom valves, 2.02 and 1.60.

Is that what you use in your LA heads 11/32 stems???

Have you done any Poly porting?

Best wishes from the poly porters of Plymouth England...

I don't really hang out with anyone anymore. I know of Gary and some others.
Most of us aren't the sharing type.. last time I had a head flowed by a guy in escondido who does nitro crackle stuff..when the numbers were in.. he was amazed..especially since he knew i was a no body..it became a couple questions from him..and then when I asked some things... he gave vague responses and then didn't wanna flow nu heads anymore...so i bought my own flow bench ..and here i am.
I use the lighter 11/32 valves ,yes.
Poly stuff I haven't played with much outside of tuning them. Short square ports, low roof. I'd like to see what I could get out of them one day.
