with a 2.020/1.600 installed, you should be able to get fairly easy these numbers= (Bowl-worked) casting # 10239906
Lift----Intake----Exhaust
.200----128.1-----111.0
.300----183.3-----149.8
.400----226.7-----175.9
.500----249.2-----189.9

with 2.055/1.600 valves as pictured on my website for 1st Level full-port job you should be able to get around
262 cfm .500" Lift on up to 270-280 cfm

all on a 4.000 Bore Flow Fixture at 28" inches test pressure

the following are for a pair of Legal castings # 10239906 for a Chevy SBC 377 cid legal size engine in a certain Class DragBoat that was slightly faster than MPH record near end of year 2000

.300--179.4----123.8
.400--219.2----137.5
.500--220.8----145.9

after legal 3 angle valve job and anything else you might get away with

.200--134.0----106.7
.300--187.3----141.7
.400--223.1----157.1

Larry,

Do you have any experiance with the BBC vortec heads? I just wonder if you had any tips for doing the bowl area around the guides on the inlet side?

Thanks,

Sean

thanks for the info. I'm going to do a set for myself for a little truck motor, but haven't ever done anything more than a bowl port to them.Looks like they would fit that application pretty well.
thanks again,

i've had 1 pair in my Shop for over a year, but never did anything with them..they were given to me.
sorry, i have no flow information on these heads..might flow test the ones i have just to see OEM stock numbers.
