Here are some shots of the intake valve ports on my Jensen Healey heads.

The exhaust port is exactly the same size and the intake port, a very symetric head.

How do these stack up with modern 4 valve heads? They seem small to me, but I'm used to fooling with SB Fords and my Lotus head, which is the same motor basically, has larger ports. Are 4 valve Honda's etc. much larger?

Hey Jake, aren't you supposed to be working? http://Forum.ImprovedTouring.com/it/biggrin.gif

I normally wouldn't be playing on the internet during these hours, but I figured I needed one more IT.com fix before hurricane #37 knocked out the power. http://Forum.ImprovedTouring.com/it/wink.gif

Have a good weekend!

Ummm...thanks Gregg...lunch break! I just talked to a bud of mine in the W.Palm/Vero Beach area...he's getting pretty bored with the whole thing! He told his mother that her steel shutters were staying up until December!

Trying to talk him into coming to GA for the ARRCs...he's GRM $2004 guy...
