The 194 head is/was intended to run on the 194 block, which has a much, much smaller bore than the 250/292 engines. So that makes the airflow have to kinda dogleg in and out of the cylinders because the chambers overhang the bores so much, further compounding the shrouding issue. Relieving the chambers can help, but wont eliminate it completely, but it does help.
