Ordering L-35's....Help!!!!

Re: Ordering L-35's....Help!!!!

Ok guys, I could use some help on the my heads from anyone that has or is running built L-35's. My builder is asking me all kinds of questions on the machining of mine. Open the the exhaust chambers, stock length push rods, Ferrea valves etc.

So far, I am having them setup for 2.00/1.6 valves, port & polish, with radiused valve, undercut, beehive, and drilled for 7/16 ARP studs.

Anything else I should do?
Do I need Ferrea valves? I was thinking of just using Manley's

I ended up talking to a couple of people.... best suggestion I got was that the Manley "budget performance" would be fine for the Ty... we're not running the valves hard enough or for the duration that would need them. So, I'm getting them all for $6ea. Beats $19ea for the higher end.

For sure the 7/16 setup is going to be worth it. For the rest of your list, I'm going to do a port match myself.... after trying it on a set of junk heads.

Are you going to get the heads ported?

Port matching will not help much @ all as compared to porting open the smallest portion of the intake port.:2cents:

This area is where the pushrods go through the cyl head. Don't get too carried away as you can port though the wall, then you will need to install thin wall tubes sorta like installing thin wall valve guides.

Pocket bowl porting is very benificial, the areas below the valves.

Isn't pocket bowl basically what radiusing is?

Radiusing is shaping the short turn radius I believe you are thinking of?

Bowl porting is the long turn radus near the valve guide area.
