you and me both make sure you get the move valve ones, just seen a 565 go 1060hp with them.
i can remember the days when it wa a BAD jOKE to even guess a 565ci could make that kind of power out of a conventional head...un-real !! :shock:

I am hoping you all are right on the heads since we just ordered a 2nd set for a 2nd 582 build. The 2nd motor is going to be a little different in cam choice and maybe rocker ratio. The motor that is in the car now is the 365 ovals with 1.75 T&Ds, brodix intake, 15:1 Diamond pistons, eagle crank and rod with the RM 420-117 cam shaft. Everyone is telling us that we should see 1050hp with this motor. I think Brodix is the head to go with in the bigger cubic inch motors hands down.

i say you will be all over that 1050 hp mark.
i have a 565ci 15:1 compression diamond piston's...the engine made 980hp...
now here is the kicker..its got a set of BB2 heads with 2.25's...and a 454r intake...now both head and intake have had a lot of work done to them..but none the less no-where near the 3x oval ports with the 2.35''s
PAR said i am about 60 hp low by using these heads and intake over the 3x heads....
The ONLY REASON and I MEAN ONLY..I went ahead and used these heads and intake i already had instead of spending the difference of the 3x set up is that Par told me these smaller heads would make more TQ on my 565ci and being that my car is 3300lbs with me in it i figured this could work in my favor running the 1/8th.
Next year and i am going with the 3x oval port and a sniper intake no matter what..along with a fogger....

Dave, my desk top is down and I don't know how to get logged on to messenger from the lap top. I hope to be back to my computer and give this thing back to my wife and kid.
On the 2nd build, the cam is yet to be determined but the heads will again be the 365 3xtra ovals.
