    351 2V CLOSED CHAMBER BUILD

    So.. I got my heads out and pulled them apart. good news is they have already been ported. Regarding the photo of the exhaust bowl is the hole supposed to be there?

    351 2V CLOSED CHAMBER BUILD

    I'm leaning toward the roller... Options soooooo many options. Maybe I'm overthinking it...A standard 351C will feel like a rocket after driving 3.0 TD Nissan Patrol (daily driver) .

    Well yes a new engine builder BUT a very experienced boiler maker welder by trade and a lot of hours spent on the die grinder . I have all the carbide bits and have been looking in to doing the clean up myself, especially when many hours are needed. Vizard?? I guess this is a youtube post??

    Thanks Greg, Appreciate your input. Regarding Compression I have read your previous posts on this but lack the confidence too say my working-out is correct. I have contacted crow cams with some figures and they recommended Crow Cam - 21649 Hydraulic (see attachment) What is the "magic" compression number...and how does one achieve it.. I have read a common mod for the 2V CC head is to fit 4V exhaust valves obviously this is to increase flow. Is it a value added mod? At this stage my block is at the machine shop and has been bored to 4.030 (block from an XD Ghia). I will also fit MSD (or similar) ignition and I have a Edelbrock 2V performer manifold on the way (a lot of parts are in low supply atm).

    351 2V CLOSED CHAMBER BUILD

    Hi All, Long time reader first time post. Looking for help/guidance on a my 351 Cleveland build for a XT Fairmont. Car will be 4 speed toploader and 9 inch diff 3:75 ratio. I have OEM 2V closed chamber heads that I was thinking of using. Looking to achieve 350+ FWHP Is this achievable? What combos have others had success with using 2V closed chamber heads? Appreciate your help in advance.
