Thanks!A guy in AZ named Jeff Jolly.They are for a bodies and 2nd gens.I bought a set just to use on dynos.Im not looking for any big numbers on this engine,not as much as the Dport as less cam and big lazy ports and a dual plane intake.I would be happy with 425 and dont see the Xram being any better.Just great eye candy.Tom

Well complete disaster on the dyno last week.The custom SCE hybrid head gaskets held the cyc but not anything else!Back to the drawing board.Engine is apart getting cleaned up and will look at using the Butler gaskets I used on the last build.Had a small flood in the dyno room when we turned the water on.SUCKED!Tom

The fire ring was 12 thou thicker than the gasket,no chance of sealing.Tom

Got it on the dyno today.The engine did not like the Xram setup.Too big of ports.Steve was looking for 440,came up a few short.Tom
