L98 Heads - cc volume

What is the combustion chamber volume of the L98 Iron heads? I cannot remember (getting old) and can only find numbers for the aluminum (58cc).

Thanks for the help.

Also, anyone know the flow numbers on the irons, intake and exhaust (stock form), for comparison.

No clue on the flow numbers, but the chambers are supposed to be 64cc's.

350 Cast Iron # 083
Lift/Intake/Exhaust
.100 44 41
.200 101 82
.300 155 125
.400 182 137
.500 196 140

They came from https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...?threadid=43197

I'd have to look to see if they have a slight dish or not (I think they do) but there are 4 valve reliefs and they are not forged.

OK, what about the Corvette L98 aluminum heads? Are they 58, 64, or the 76 cc that seems to be out there?

If they are 58, what would the compression ratio be on a Camaro L98 with stock pistons?
