Hey guys,
I am trying to find out what these iron heads are worth and if they are a good iron head to port and get some decent power out of. They came off my GM crate motor and were brand new when I got the motor. They have about 40,000 mi on them. The casting number is 83417369, and they have 72cc combustion chambers, 1.94"/1.60" valves. I looked around on mortec.com and some other places, as well as searching the message boards. I can't seem to find any info on them (i guess cause they're pretty new).
