Re: Replacement Alum Mopar Heads
The biggest issue facing users of the Edelbrock head is the intake valve seat....Edelbrock heads are set up for a 2.02 intake valve only, so if your combo requires a 1.88 intake valve you will find that the seats should be replaced with smaller diameter seats in order to get enough material for a decent competition valve job....since the guides are smaller than the stock stem diameter 11/32 compared to 3/8, the guides can be reworked to the correct size......what this would do to the port volume and what you could do to maintain it I can't address....doing a set of these heads for an early 340 wouldn't be too tough, but for anything else with the smaller intake valves is another matter......
