Thread: Anyone used "Peanut Ports" on your BBC?

Tweet

If you look at the HT502 "high torque" crate engine in the GM performance parts catalog, I believe that engine uses the peanut port style heads. It makes 340 hp with 550 torque coming from my memory. It used a VERY small hydraulic roller cam with I believe around 202 dur. @ .050.

Thanks Elko, I just went and checked it out...hadn't heard of that one before. I wish they had a dyno sheet to display with it. They keep talking about towing, why do they never mention anything about putting a torque producing motor like that in a car with "highway" gears ??

Hoping someone on this forum has tried it before...
