Albeit they are a little large, I don't see how with a custom grind cam, good matching intake, and a good tune, it couldn't pump out some serious power for a stock shortblock car. I've never had to worry about flycutting or PTV mostly because of aftermarket piston solutions in my motors but since I'd prefer to leave this motor alone, I figured I'd give it a shot. The heads in question are a set of victor Jr 210cc 2.05 intake and I believe 1.6 exhaust valved heads, lightly gasket matched. The only way to make them fit is by flycutting, however I don't have much experience with that and was wondering if anyone here does. Equally the same, I'm questioning whether the amount required to cut out of the piston will be so great that I could either weaken the piston greatly, or unbalance the rotating assembly by removing to much material. These heads are fairly large for the bottom end, and I am partially compelled to scrap the idea because of that. However I don't see how they CAN'T make good power, albeit a little high in the rpm band. I'd appreciate the help.</p></blockquote><p></p>
