Re: cyllinder head q

I don't have those answers handy, but I can tell you I'd have no problem with running the perimeter-bolt-valve-cover heads. they aren't the best flowing, but they're great for convincing people you don't have aftermarket heads. To me, that's worth something. I have a good pair of 241s if you want to trade, but the trade would have to include the valve covers.

Aside from the obvious, the 241s flow a bit better. Expect about 10 hp.
