I don't have them in hand yet so I haven't checked them personally. My head guy says they are very close to a stage 2 KC head or survival motorsports' new head.

Do you ever use there heads or do you always use a bare head and have your guy do the porting?

I buy bare heads and have them ported per application.

There are significant differences between my head and an Edelbrock or a Pond. All good parts, but all with different intentions and targets in mind.

I will pour one of JDC ported Survival heads sometime today if I get the chance. I have a set here that he had at a similar 340+ cfm. As cast with a valve job and bowl blend mine are at 180cc. Not sure how far Joe took these but it does not look all that big.

I think Joe sent out the set that he had for the Aussie customer. He was the one that told me that the port volume all looked similar. He hadn't measured yours though.

Very curious to see how these do on the dyno. Should be strong performers, certainly better than the Edelbrocks on the chamber shape and exhaust side. Low lift numbers are really nice too. Joe put a nice backcut on the valves, so the charge should just slide right out.
