No. I said that all wrong actually.

I was thinking one thing and typing about another.

how is the oil drainback with these heads? It is hard to tell from the pics. My application will be for a circle track modified, so this may be critical for oil issues.

Thanks for that heads up for contacting him Tom, I really appreciate that.

Thanks to all the others who chimed in as well.

Congatulations on buying a great head. No disappointments for sure.

Not an issue so far. Jim stated that he has a set running on that application with no problems at all.

J.C., It's good to hear your still working on your oval track modified and does anyone know any details about who or what kind of oval track car is using CV1 heads? I might need to call Jim and find out about that because Pontiac powered oval track cars are about scarce as hens teeth. Great to hear others are using the Pontiac engine as I did for quite a few years racing oval tracks and had great success with it. Targa, sorry for the post hijack but I love hearing about Pontiac powered oval cars, now back to your regularly scheduled post.....

1" wide troft for drainback down the middle, and (2) 9/16" drain holes at ends.

Drain back is awesome...no issues here and my motor has went to 8800 by accident more than once. I noticed no oil pressure issues.

Default Yella Terra Pontiac Rockers Update

Hi Guys,

Im fairly new to your forum and just wanted to give users an update on some of the Yella Terra Rockers (dont get the wrong idea ...im not promoting them on your forum...just giving you what we will have available for the Pontiac guys).

Ive attatched an image of our Pedestal Mount/Trunnion (6317) rockers that are used for the CV1 heads. These rockers are our registered design that suits BBC/BBF. They come with pedestals and pins and aligning tool to bolt these on. The rockers give you the stability of a shaft system ( no guideplates/hardedned PR/Girdles needed).

We currently have
STUD Systems
YT 6029 Pontiac V8 7/16 1.5 ratio straight arms to suit factory heads Stud system
YT 5010 Pontiac V8 7/16 1.65 Ratio Stud systems

SHAFT SYSTEMS
YT 6370 Pontiac 8 Edelbrock Performer Twin shaft system ( 240” inlet offset & pushrod offset))
YT 6372 Pontiac 8 Edelbrock Performer Twin Shaft system

We are currently developing Bolt on Shaft systems (Platinum Series) similar to the picture attatched to suit

Pontiac 6X Original Cast heads
Pontiac KRE D Port Heads &
Pontiac KRE Hi Ports

These will be released in the next 6-8 weeks(Assuming all the testing goes 100% )
in Australia and we'll post them up on the web and let you know when available in the USA
Most of our products will be available from our US distributor BP - David and his team @ Butler Performance.


If you have any further questions ...just email me at [email protected]

Glad to be part of the community

Jim
Yella Terra
