Sorry you got took Dan,I will have to see if I can check out these videos over Christmas break. Only money I take on work up front is for parts,you have 10-15 jobs going on is hard tie up my money in all those parts and if happen to get stuck with a job easier to sell it for labor you are owed and most likely customer will pick it up,even doing that I have about 15Klabor (been waiting 3-4months),parts are paid, sitting here waiting for people to come and pick up,going to have to sell their stuff looks like,which I will call them and tell them,first person shows up with amount you owe will own your stuff.

I did a set of the iron heads probably 12 years ago,have to see if can find those numbers was street/strip car,I do remember they were better with stock size valves,customer brought list of what he wanted printed off a website,2.02/1.60 valves was what they wanted,it took quite a bit of bowl work to get them back to where they were stock,then fully ported them,later did a set off a ZZ4 crate engine which is basically aluminum version of the same head,left stock size valves and ported them they were a better set of heads like that,flowed somewhere around 230@ 25''s.
Any luck and my pure stock combo will be in the floor or with a new owner.

Yeah got taken..fool me once.
Lesson learned.

Wow was hoping to get an opportunity to race you heads up.
That would have been fun..!

That ZZ4 is popular engine.
Seems those heads respond very well with stock size valves.
LT1 Irons surprisingly do even better.

Have a great family and holiday season.
May SANTA drop off some fast parts.
