081/416 heads vs dart iron eagle 67cc

I have an 335 stroker with powerhouse rotating assembly and not sure what heads I should use. I have a set of 081's, 416's, and dart iron eagle ss 67cc 165 intake, 1.94 1.50 valves. I'm running a comp xe269hr-12 cam, and holley stealth ram with 24lb injectors. If the 081's or 416's are used they will need modified for cam correct?

What pistons do you have? The compression ratios for those Powerhouse kits are based on 58cc cylinder heads. I used World Products S/R Torquers for the 305.

Those world products heads are the one I wanted but I waited months on back order and said the heck with it and got the darts.

Same pistons I have. With 58cc heads and a .040" head gasket, you will be really close to 10:1 compression. Cam choice is perfect. You do not want to go any bigger and there is no need for 1.6 rockers.

That cam is a little small in a 305, much less a 335 IMO. I ran a Crane 272H10 with 1.6:1 rockers in a 9.5:1 0.040" over 305 with 059 Vortecs on top. It had a GM 330 HP 350 HO intake manifold and a Q-Jet on top of it. 1 3/4" primary long tube headers with 3" collectors and a 2.5" dual exhaust with a X pipe in it. All this stuffed into a 1980 C10 long bed truck with a 2.73 rear gear and TH350 with a 2,800 rpm converter. The truck was QUICK, especially in the 3,000-6,500 rpm range. Same engine with a Victor Jr, custom plenum divider plate, and Edelbrock 500cfm carb backed to a Powerglide with a looser converter and 3.08 gears put a 1980 Corvette into the mid 12s @ 112 mph.

Re: 081/416 heads vs dart iron eagle 67cc

So I should probably use the factory 416 heads to achieve 10:1 and just have the springs changed, studs pinned or put in screw in studs, and whatever else needs done to handle .495 I and .503 e lift? The darts I have wouldn't have to do anything other than bolt them on but with 67cc chambers I probably lose 1 whole point of compression?
