BTW...with your numbers you need to run low 12's not 14's. I say that because I just used your numbers and did the math.

I'm all for innovation. If you want to innovate, you need tools to test with. That would be a flow bench and a dyno and then the track. If all the numbers don't add up, you need to learn why they don't.
Just rehashing a junk valve job without testing properly isn't innovation. It's mental masturbation.
I've tested many valve jobs. The LAST valve job I'd use is a 30 degree seat. Can't tell you how many Pontiacs I converted to 45* seats. The poncho purists all lose their collective minds. I tell them if they had a mind they wouldn't be screwing with Pontiacs, and I say that after I just did 3 hard days in a Pontiac sweat shop.
I'll be asking for your advice then to help me get into the 12's... Wouldn't it be hilarious to have a 4Dr Car with a hood ornament and a 318 run 12's.....
Not necessarily. My home ported 302's went 242 @ 500 lift with a 1.90 11/32 valve.My home ported 302 heads....what do you see?
My first thought was --A big waste of time.
The rods are too heavy and the heads are Ehh, not the worst but not great , how about the dowel pins for the main caps....the block,heads,rods are just plain heavy.Stand by for numbers in a few weeks...Big fan of Pontiacs..... much overlooked platform.....
Had a ‘69 Grand Prix ... that 400 was awesome...The rods are too heavy and the heads are Ehh, not the worst but not great , how about the dowel pins for the main caps....the block,heads,rods are just plain heavy.
