I've got a set of heads off of an '87 Blazer, 350, TBI. I know its got 1.95/1.55 valves, but what I really need to know is the combustion chamber size and if its worth it to have the heads opened up to larger valves. Anyone got answers? Or maybe a slap in the face? I've got 487x heads on the engine right now and want to increase my compression. Thanks in advance.

do you have the numbers off the TBI heads?..the 487x had 75cc chambers..I dont think any late model 350 heads(except vortecs) had 64cc chambers..the 487s were good heads..made 320 hp on the LT1..you could mill the 487s and get CR up some.
