Re: 84 K10 is still gutless after cam heads intake
Im with Centipede on those TBI heads. I been planning the engine build for my crew cab and actually went looking for those heads. iv done quite a bit of research on them. heres what iv found. There junk they dont flow for **** and that big hunk of cast right in the middle of the runner just flat ****s up the flow. at the upper rpm range, most guys throw them away. now that iv said that. these heads work great for low end torque. the swirl port actually works at low rpm about 3500 and under . and if you clean up the exhuast port it flow pretty good to. The set i have have been surfaced and mild pocket port done there are a small 58cc. and yes i will be running a dished piston. Im hoping for some awesome torque numbers and great fuel mileage. I guess we'll see how it goes.
Dont give up on that head just yet. I cant wait to get started on my engine. So keep us up to date on what you find.
Oh its just my opinion but I wouldn't run a edelbrock on anything. plus it might be to big. Im willing to bet if you got a smaller carb it would run better and accelerate better to. good luck to you
