New numbers from my Indy heads. 
Upgraded to a 1.25/1.67 diameter 5/16 stem titanium Dell West valves and did some more porting. 
Not quite done, going to install pushrod tubes which will get me a touch more csa at the pinch and may pick the port up a couple more.

Going on my new engine for the Javelin. 
Not sure if I am going to stroke it or not but building it for high 13's compression and 8k rpm's with a 5k converter so either way they will work fine.

A 6" +  rod with flat top pistons and those heads should
make it easy to net 2 hp per CID.

Have not measured final csa and port volume yet if I get to it this week I will post it. 
It should be sizes real close to what the valve needs, the height is set at 2.6" the width is not quite done yet and I dont remember what it is or have the info here. 
I imagine the runner is somewhere between 245-255 cc's.

I've got a set of those heads on my 401.They flow like crazy,& the car runs like a "scalded dog". However I had to use "Indys" intake because of the angle of the heads. I personally don't like single plane intakes but it does have bosses for EFI. Hope you enjoy them.
