Thread: H/C/I/carb on 4 bolt 350

Tweet

Oh ok I am understanding a little better. I built Hondas before i had my Camaro and mustangs so I come from the import world where compression is everything. I guess what I'm really asking at the end of the day is could the 195 heads benefit me in any way or would I be better off with the 180s if money wasn't an issue? If my application is better off with the 180s, I can pass up the 195s. It's no big deal.
If I can benefit from them, say I go with a cam that has similar specs to what you're suggesting, would I also want a bigger carb and maybe a different intake?
Thanks for being patient with me.

again back to what parts ? intake what do you have ? and back to heads you can not realy just look at cc of port runner . not ever one s heads are going to flow the same and like i said dart dyno i think 3 heads if you want to just look at port cc and many do it a bad habit tell s you how many cc the port holds there a hell of alot more to it .you have go to dart web page like i said. i do not think the 198 are to big but then you need to tell me more then you told me ? what is the rpm band . what carb cfm you have one ?. what intake ? you have one ? what is the 180 flow numbers who makes the head. on paper the bigger head allways wins but if your under 3000 rpm.most of the time and moveing a 4000. pound car ? no CR is only about around 6 hp more going from 9to1 to 10to 1 now if you jump up to 15to1 when yes it helps if you have the fuel but then the 15 to1 engine as not the same deal
