Few simple questions about my lo5 heads.

I have lo5 heads currently and 9.6:1 compression. Whats CC are my heads? 58 or 64? Im going to pick up a set of 416 (those 305 heads everyones porting from the l69) or more than likely a set of l98 heads. What CC are l98s and what size valves they have?

With ported l98 heads my mods and a 264 extreme energy cam what kinda power would i be making?

How are you running 9.6:1 with LO5 heads? Those heads are 76cc chambers. A flat top piston with .015" head gasket will only give 9:1?!?! You must be running dome tops???

If you do have LO5 heads (14102191 or 14102193) then they're the crappy *** 'swirl port' heads that are good for RPM below 3000 I've heard they make great boat anchors especially since they DON'T FLOW AT ALL!!!!!!! LOL
