Someone asked about these, was curious myself so picked up a bare set & hacked on them a little.

These are basically a Dart Platinum knockoff probably the same thing as Skip Whites NKB, lots of no name/white box stuff on ebay. Bet theres more than 1 place making them, too.

2.02 1.6 valve
64cc
Straight plug
Erson stainless valves. HR springs, 7.16 studs nothing fancy
Dual intake bolt pattern which is a plus
1206 intake size


Flowed on 4.125 bore 28" SF-600 No pipe on exh

Feedback from the builders/pros on here what were your experiences, opinions?
Off these go to CL so someone can offer peanuts due to a little epoxy in 1 pinch area. Found a literal void that shouldnt of been there, comes with the $ Territory lol.

Noticed some of you pros go after bigger exh #s others dont.
Reasons?

Was frustrating trying to get any type of consistent finish on these nothing was straight or round even the chamber. Suprised i didnt poke more holes. Most I use carbide on as I have copd and dont want to breath that roll dust. DIdnt want to roll our as easily as more expensive castings do (duh)

Opinion on selecting cam lobe either way?

jmark cant seem to get email for ST tried a bunch. did I get the boot somehow?

He likes txting....Do you need the number?

Sure.....long as he isnt sending nekkid selfies. J/K!

Your wasting you time on the exhaust unless running a power adder. The exhaust is under pressure, it will get out. If lazy just give it more time...duration. A legit ProStock engine will have I/E ratio in the high 50% range.

i would not be so sure about that. not a huge demand, so no reason for the efficient chinese to tool up more than one joint to pump these out. different boxes, wrapping, part numbers, names.....certainly.

No reason to doubt that.
Chris really didnt expect the exh to do what it is ;didnt take much

If a valve/spring wasnt having to be held open as far/shorter wouldnt that be of some benefit? Guess its splitting hairs

Think about it..at what lift does the greatest velocity occur on the exhaust?

A friend in Australia went to the Chinese "Autorama" show. Best he could tell there is about 6 to 8 base mfg companies making US performance heads. There is about another dozen buying from those guys and rebranding them.

I bought a set of the angle plug ones from Skip for a possible future use. Stuff like these,,example EQ 50cc heads,,sometimes dry up and no longer available..I'd love to see more pictures of your handy work as the numbers are pretty good considering!

If those heads are drilled and tapped for both standard and Vortec style intakes, you will have sealing problems with a standard intake. The intake ports are too tall for a standard intake, so you will have to search to find a gasket that will work. I went through this with my crate engine and the crappy Pro Comp heads that came on it.

Chris, I've suspected that for a while. I used to think intake and exhaust flow were equally important. One thing that made me question that was when I got a set of B1 heads for a big block mopar-the intake valve is 2.30" and the exhaust is 1.78". Those heads are known to make power, and the available real estate is certainly biased more toward the intake than I was expecting. Guess the Chinese figured that out too, or whoever they copied did.

A 1206 will seal them just fine. Some confuse these for vortec heads or dont read instructions then getupset theirs doesnt fit. If someone fudged with their bolt holes on a 1205 maybe but why?
The work they need kinda jumps right out at you.

1 exh, and a big oops, made a 3/4" "bushing", shaped the area til it was a round "press in" then used some JB turned out fine. Should have been more metal there. What appeared as 1 pinhole after pressing on it resulted in this in 1 shot. As luck would have it that was the last one..someting didnt seem right when measuring, found out.
