new valves in mock-up head
Juuuust lookin' at your combustion chambers, Phil. Looks too like a bit of relief applied to the chamber wall adjacent to the intake valves, AND the quench area looks to be reduced a bit as well. Did you do the porting? If not, who did (if I may ask)?

Looking familiar... (I did my own porting w/ advice and guidance fm the "FBI" gurus)
