Heads & other Q's for a 235ci rebuild - 10/11/06 07:07 PM
Hi,
I need to build (2) 235ci engines for our daily drivers. I have 3 848 heads with the following numbers:
1. 3836848 E77 , GM14 intake is 1 15/16”.
2. 3836848 12J3, GM3 intake is 1 7/8”.
3. 3836848 C162, GM25 intake is 1 7/8”.
Which would be the best 2 heads, assuming they are not cracked?
What would be a good street grind for a camshaft?
How much can you mill the head, with 0 block deck, and be safe for pump gas and have adequate piston to valve clearance?
Does anyone make aftermarket (upgraded) rod bolts?
Thanks,
Ken
