 I am quite disappointed in my cylinder heads. They are worked over Edelbrock TBI oval port heads that have been angle milled and ported out to rectagular ports.

 I bought these heads off of www.racingjunk.com from a guy who supposedly had them in a 3300# Nova with a flat top equipped 496 and a pretty hairy solid roller that he said ran 6.20's in the 1/8. The machine shop where they were worked on said it made 730HP with a Victor Jr. and a 950HP. (Which now I SERIOUSLY doubt)
 
 The machine shop that did the work on them told me they flow 370/240 @ .800 and had 90cc chambers. I got them flowed on a 4.25 bore fixture without a pipe since my local race engine shop didn't have one as small as my 1.75 headers.
 
 Here are the numbers on #3 cylinder("bad" runner) with 28" test pressure
 Lift Int Exh
 .100 70.1 63.6
 .200 147.8 118.3
 .300 211.8 140.9
 .400 258.0 173.3
 .500 285.0 192.8
 .600 297.0 207.4
 .700 308.9 220.3
 .800 318.4 232.0
 
 they also CC'd the #6 chamber at 94cc which puts me at about 9.5:1 static CR.
 
 Now here are the million dollar questions...
 
 they originally were Edelbrock ROVAL
 
 Now they are Rect 2 13/32 x 1 27/32 or 1 25/32 depending on if it is the good port or bad port
 
 how does this compare to other rect heads?
 
 Are these worth trying to go fast with?
 
 What cam should I select?
 
 Here are some of the recommendations from major cam companies...

 What do you guys think? Remember this is a 454 in a S-10 Blazer. It weighs about 3600#. TH350/Currie 9" w/ 4.11 gears and 26" slicks at the track. I plan on street driving it as much as I can. I still haven't pick an intake either, but it will have a Holley 0-9380 carb on it.
 
 Did I get seriously screwed over on this deal? Pretty much everyone has told me that I am the stupidest person on earth and I should get rid of these on ebay and start over, They aren't even worth their weight in scrap aluminum.
