Well I got the mod bug again and I sent a set of heads off today to Richard at WCCH. These were a brand new set of 317s I bought last year and never got around to getting them done. So in a few weeks they will be done. Richard has been a great guy to talk to the last few weeks making my choice pretty easy. These heads will match the cam really well, 216/220 555/563. This should be the last of the mods to the SS, unless the 408 that I am building ends up in there.

 

Thats a small *** cam for a 408. Go big or go home like me

Richard does make a nice set up heads though. i almost got a set but decided to go with the DARTs so I woudl be able to give the guy that is doing most of the work on my 408 the 6L heads I have for his FI 4.8

 

I am not putting that cam in the 408, The 408 won't make it to the SS I don't think. The SS is staying my daily driver, the 408 is going in something else.
I was very impressed with his numbers and were they peaked at, Moregrip's pictures looked like they were a very high quality piece. He is a really cool guy to talk too.

 

sweet bro, what did you go with?

 

Same ones as you Grippy, I had all the parts for mine cause the guy that does my oval track heads was going to do these for me. Things got too busy for him and now I have time to play. Richard numbers are really good for the cam in my truck. I have 2.02 1.57 Manley valves and Patriot Gold springs. I am getting 71 cc chambers so I can keep the stock compression , instead of the 74cc.
Are yours on yet?

 

not yet, but I'm a slow poke

 

Damm you need help getting those heads on i'll help you.
I'll be runin 9's by the time you get them on.

 

BTW Richard does killer work.He's done lots of work in the past for me.
He's one of the best in the head biz.I'll be getting a set in a couple weeks i have to get my cores over to him so he can get started.

Congrats mattrem

 

Grippy, Whats taking so long?

Mine should be on as soon as they get here. The only thing I need is for Allen to update my tune. I want to try to get to the track before the season is over.

 

Just time really, truck will be down for a week when its time to do the work, need to take some more vacation to get it done the way I want.
