This is why I have always suspected the Boss 302 was a dog at low rpm more so because of the cam and intake, than the ports. Yes the port are huge, but the cam and intake was also for high rpm.
Everyone focuses on the heads, but the port is quite short compared to the intake. I suspect the intake has much more to do with velocity and air momentum than the heads.
I would love to see a mild roller cam in a Boss 302 compared on a dyno to a factory issue. Followed by some choice intake swaps. Wish I had the resources to play.
