Sounds like a good deal for someone. 186's are great (and hard to find) heads too IMO.

I talked to my friend tonight and he said the pistons are stock replacement but it should be around 9.25 to 1 compression with the heads. The crank was turned .10 and the rods resized with ARP rod bolts. The rollertip rockers are 1.52 ratio. He said the heads had hardened seats and bronze guides. They are still 1.94/1.50 valve size. The heads have a little porting but I think it was mostly to clean them up to help them flow. They are not hogged out.If anyone is interested call me .He had the motor in a Nova for a very short time. The motor has been in storage for about a year now.

Hi Brian,
I see that you must have gotten them. The 406 is from the same car the warriors are from. You can see how much run time he had on the motor. Thanks for the purchase. You seem to have a real nice stable of vehicles. Interested in a 70 RS/SS camaro to add to it? Frank |
