    Unhappy camel hump heads

     



    I am running a set of the ol fuelie camel hump heads on my stroker 383. the heads have had a lot of work done.2.02 / 1.60 valves,larger springs,ported,polished etc. I am considering changing to an aluminum performance head due to adding a 671 supercharger. Does anyone have any input on weather to keep these heads around or should i just part with them? Any ideas what to ask for these. Right now they are on the motor and it dyno'ed at 613hp so I know they work well.

    The dyno shop said that the exhaust ports are a little to restictive for the blower motor. They said that the heads are excellent for naturally asperated motors but mine would work better with the upgrade. Also i am having problems finding brackets that will work with the comination of no accessory holes and the blower.

    There is a demand for camel hump heads. I'd offer them up on EBay. Should bring a couple of hundred bucks.

    Don't get me wrong,I am happy with 600 horses. i just want the motor to be a little safer...getting that exhaust out of there...helping to avoid detonation. Plus the mentioned bracket problem.
