The 848 head has an appointment with the flow bench this coming weekend to see what fixturing or adapters need to be made, if any, to bolt it onto the flowbench(Superflow 600). I know I will need to make a transition tube to bolt to the intake port entry with a radius to help stabilize air entry into the port. I will "bump" the valve seats, and establish a baseline of flow #'s(intake and exhaust) to have a starting point with a head in stock trim and condition. I will then systematically make changes that you would normally make in trying to increase performance and airflow, such as enlarge the bowl area(bowl cut)and radius the short side,step up the valve sizes, enlarge ports and entry,etc...checking each mod of the bench one at a time to see how each item helps or hurts the flow. Then I will move on to the "lump" port style mods that really got this topic "fired up".But not all at once, just preliminary setup this weekend. Also,pics will follow as well.....
