Interesting compression ratio and deck height stuff.

This is an old video but here is a small sample of my collection. Thank goodness my new garage is way bigger.

 

So that's just the Show Room
More pic's would be nice when you can of the Big Boy garage

 

In getting back to the original topic. Anyway you look at it with 350 cid your going to a total combination of 65 CCs above the piston top to end up with a 12 to 1 comp.

 

The pole barn, and the new house with 3 car garage, 6 feet width added, 42 foot deep on the 3rd bay with 11.8’ ceiling. Epoxy floor, Hot and cold water, 3 sets of 220V, floor drains, still haven’t setup the 4 post lift, too many other things on the agenda. Built in commercial pressure washer, plasma, mig, tig, and arc welders. And I built a huge barn style shed in the back for extra storage. Just moved in a few months ago so still getting it sorted.

 

Yes the heads are highly modified iron versions with 45cc vs the stock 58cc. The chambers are welded up and made into a closed chamber design. 29 thou quench zone. It works out to 12.9:1 compression.

And yes 60 total volume.
.

 

Sounds right for 12.9 to 1!

So your confident about the Welding work holding up?

 

Sean Just Wow!!

 

It was done by a professional head shop so yes. When Trick Flow was up and coming they rented a shop from a fellow who was big time into Buick’s. They spent weeks re working the heads, was a $3500 bill! Attached is the cam that was designed for the heads. The largest Buick 350 roller cam in the world.

They also created a set of Two piece BBB heads that are pretty darn cool. I will try to dig up pics of them.

 

These are the BBB heads they made. $10,000 back in 1996, my head porting guy is using these on a Tomahawk.

 

It's just a matter of time before someone asks..
Numbers? Anything from flow to HP and TQ? Valve sizes?
I believe you showed these before but it's been a while right?

 

Sorry I don’t have any specs or numbers to share but I will ask him. The heads require a custom intake and headers but should be very cool once it’s done.

 

That cam is way bigger than the one in my 900+hp BBB WOW!!!

 

Written on the top is 4500-7400 RPM, that’s the rpm range they were planning for. The bottom end is an internal balance forged internal setup so I will spin it up to 7500.

 

That core must have started out with .450 lobe heights. Amazing if you can get it to clear the rods.

 

We will see. At least I’m using a stock stroke. Worst case I have it re-ground as a custom turbo cam.

I have 7 new cams to work with so lots of options.

I’ve also got a few of these level 5 flat tappet solids they were in sale for $39 a few years ago so I bought them up:

and also one of these level 4s, also $39.

Well... they won't perform at all sitting on the shelf.

 

But it’s nice to have options lol!

look at those lobes! This is the huge roller

 

I put the crank back in the engine and getting ready to ship it away for dyno testing. I’m going to use this modified oil pan. Someone welded on a larger bottom section and extended the pickup.
