Lloyd Elliott

I had a set ported by him with 2.02/1.6 valves flowed 287/201 @ .600. Put down 413RWHP and 391 RWTQ with a 72k stock bottom end (cc306 Lt's) Paid about $1000 for porting, new valves, decking, valve job, new valve seals and shipping to and back to me. HTH

Lloyd Elliott aka Nighttrain66 is the man you seek. My heads from him flow just about the same as Smoke's (283/198).

Yeah I do port and polish heads but I don't do it for a living just on the side when ever some one does not want to pay big $$$$. But I would recomend Lloyd since he is colser to you than I am. He is in Red Oak.

Hey Joe, I finally got everything working. The knocking turned out to be the tranny mount bolts. It runs REAL nice. I had my heads touched up by Joe(SMOKE/TA) when he installed my HC kit. I will be taking it to the Dyno (finally) in about 2 weeks. For the $$$ and what I wanted, couldn't beat the price or effort.

Kyle,
Cool glad you finally got it all worked out Did you ever reset the IAC so it would not die when coming to a stop or going from P to R? LMK what it puts down.

Later

No, I have not doen anything with IAC yet. Its still stumbles when coming to a start or shifting gears but I had Bryan up the idle to keep it from dying right now. How can you reset the IAC? I thought you just cleaned or bought a new one. I'll let you know the #'s though.

Joe or Phil, would either of you two be willing to do a very basic quick cleanup on the heads? I dont have a lot of money but I have to pull the heads for a gasket leak anyhow, so I can afford a little bit more $$ to put something better back on. Let me know prices and timeframe if you can. Thanks to all.
