Nice.. My complete gasket set - including my head gaskets - came in this box..   The box looks like it has been folded in half. Thank you UPS.. I don't want to trust the head gaskets and have filed damage report. |

That's a bummer. when I ordered my dart heads one came in a taterd box with no packing material. And the next day the other one showed up with out a box just a bare head on the porch, with a tag wired to it.  they looked as if they fell down a couple flights of stars, I was extremely disappointed...  |

This is the cam setup I'll problably run. Track Max hydraulic roller cam offered by Trick Flow Specialties. The Track Max cam offered a 0.499/0.510 lift split, a 221/225 duration split, and a 112-degree lobe separation angle. I'll probablly end up with the Aluminum heads, 2.02 and 1.60 valves. I'll try and run a lower runner flow of 170-190 to increase tork (and I don't want to spin the motor past 6K). and a 60cc Chamber (9.4 to 1 compression).  With this setup I'll need the 1.6 or 1.7's roller rockers and It will be a pain to adjust them in the jeep, under the intake. The valve covers are really hard to get off. This is a proven formula that I'm just copying. If I go this route the HP and Tork curve will be like what is shown below.  I ordered these heads the other day. I'm pretty sure I will go with this cam as well (trick flow track max). I might go 1.7 rockers as that will put my lift at .50 from .510 to .542, that is alot for my speed density setup and I will need to clay the motor to make sure the valves will not hit the pistons. I still need to order the .100 push rods. Really I need a adjustable pushrod to make sure it is the correct length. (anyone have one of these, that I can barrow?) 3/8 1.7 rockers, ARP head bolts for 1/2" to 7/16" (heads to block) Cam (probably the one listed above). LeeLand is giving me so roller lifters so I can make this a full roller motor  (Thanks again LeeLand!) |

No problem.
What's the deck height on the pistons and what's the crush thickness on the gaskets?

Very cool!
You'll have to put some smaller tires in it and come racing with me.

Look what was at home for me last night!!!   They are the ProComp Aluminum 2.02 heads, with 60CC chambers and 190 intake runners! They came with one-piece stainless steel swirl polished undercut valves and progressive dual springs that have 110-380 spring pressure (open/closed). They support 550HP without doing any porting, and polishing! I'm finishing them by porting and polishing them; then putting in screw in studs and guide plates. They will be matched with a trick flow "track max" full roller-racing cam, chrome molly hardened +.100 push rods, and 1.6 roller rockers. |

what did the box look like? LOL What I showed is out of the box, from the company (KMJ) that I bought them from. It looks like the company did a little port cleaning before they sent the heads to me. They looked really good. BUT.... I'm working them over to make them better, smoother. Back in my racing day's I did alot of porting and polishing on heads for my car, but this is the first V8 Aluminum heads I've reworked, and I have to say it is much easier then the cast ones. But more scarry becasue of how fast the material can be removed with the porting tools I have. I'll post some pics up when I'm done with them. |
