Another head poll
The application is a 305 SBC. The head options are:
1. Vortec 350 heads milled down with a steel shim gasket. 2. World Products Torquer 305 heads.

Re: Another head poll
i don't know why you wouldn't go with the vortec. I have vortec 906 castings (not installed yet, engine swap still in progress). Vortec will give you the best flow out of the box, no porting necessary. Vortec = proven power. 305 heads on a 350 is not a good idea anyway. They are not made to accomodate the larger displacement.

Re: Another head poll
goin with vortec will drop my compression. I'm also sure that the torquer's will out perform the vortec's, most ppl just use the vortecs cuz you can get em for cheap. The price doesn't matter to me tho. I just want the best performance choice for my 305.

Re: Another head poll
whoops, yeah sorry. I was thinking you've got a 350. In that case....
put a blower on it. (in your words  )well... there's been a lot of controversy about mix-matching 305 and 350 heads on different engines. I remember reading something from, I think, hot rod mag. They did a dyno with both types of heads and turned out 350 heads on 305 did not make any improvement in performance. but of course you can get different results with different particulare heads. I would go with what's logical, port/polish 305 heads, with good intake and cam. or Vortec and , put a blower on it.
