Held more CCs than legal. I had decked my block a lot, so needed to mill the intake side of my heads a lot so the manifold would fit. Got rid of some intake CCs.

Completely agree Alan, I don't think someone has to be the fastest or 'coolest' or have the best paint or bazillion $$ tow rig to have a blast racing. There is a lot more to it than that for me. I am determined to build a 14-15 Camaro to run SS/FA or SS/GA. I would like to run pts meets, GLSSSA or similar races, No-Box stuff and 1/4 mile racket races too. I plan to do as much of the work myself as possible. I can TIG weld, fabricate, CAD design, do FEA and CNC machine too. I will learn CFD as well so I can design, machine and flow my own heads and intakes. I want to build my own motor and trans as well. I will paint the car, if I have to. Never done it, but I am willing to learn and try. I want to be able to say this is MY race car, I paid for it, I designed it, I built it, I drive it and I am very proud of it. (good or bad) We'll see if put my nickels were my mouth is.... I can't wait to get back to the track, I hope everyone is staying safe, and sane through all of this.

Re: Stock Eliminator Cylinder Heads
I have a completely different result going through castings and flowing them...
my brother and I went through dozens and dozens of 882's and 450's for our cars... you could have threw them all in a pile closed your eyes and grabbed a pair and they would have been as good as any other dozens of heads in that pile...maybe every 882 and 450 just suck... that being said though I still try to pick a set that look like they have the least shift and least flaws.... not for performance but for reliability... |
