TPiS Mini Ram Porting and 113 heads.
Doing a project for myself. '86 IROC with a '91 L98 engine. Decided to port the heads and use a mini ram. Converted the heads to 8mm 2.00/1.570 valves and used a LS drop in kit. Erson 226/234 camshaft. Should be a nice little fun ride!

Nice, did you get any b4/after numbers on any of it? I did a set of 113s almost 20yrs ago and we picked up 6/10ths in the 1/4 over the stock 87 350 iron heads.

Right off the car to the bench .100-.700 on 4.00 fixture
Reworked with 2.00/1.570 .100-.900 on same fixture
NO PIPE on either

Nice! I'm sure they will be fun! Is your portwork able to be purchased?

How much does that texture on the intake side help? Never seen it before. You still post on the bullet?

Re: TPiS Mini Ram Porting and 113 heads.
Looking forward to seeing updates! Seems like this is going to be a pretty sweet little setup. Did you port to a 1205 gasket?

Re: TPiS Mini Ram Porting and 113 heads.
How would these heads compare in cost and performance to a set of AFR heads, etc? I'm just curious.

Re: TPiS Mini Ram Porting and 113 heads.
@Gd here is the flow numbers on a set of 128s I have that were changed from square port exhaust to d port. I’m sure the 113s ported here flow more.

Re: TPiS Mini Ram Porting and 113 heads.
Honestly, I wouldn't spend the money on them if I was a guy that was looking at heads. So much better stuff out there. I did it because I do this and I had them. If I did it all over I would put set of Pro-Filer or something like that on it. I still would have ported them. Just have a problem not touching something! lol
