Need Chevrolet 283 advice-Heads etc,what will work?

Yes, there are some 601's with the 1.84 intakes, but most have 1.72, like my truck. That's why you can get them for next to nothing, or free. The ports are also small, but slightly larger than 265/283 heads. Lousy on my stroker 305/334. I think they're good heads for small CID engines, and get downplayed in that respect. Everyone wants/has a 350/383, and they require better heads. Shaggy, do you know the fella just east out of Sultan, on the left, with the large garage/shop and big red enclosed car hauler trailer? He's a friend-of-a-friend. Butch/56sedandelivery.

 

If it's the guy i'm thinking of, i know of him, but he is one of the few guys in town i dont actually know
