We don't have "levels" or "stages" of porting like other vendors. Our heads are max effort on every set. These heads are equipped with the best of everything, competition stainless valves with single groove keepers, heat treated competition keepers, Beehive springs, titanium retainers and viton seals. Designed to be used in stroker and forced induction applications, but these head excel in naturally aspirated stock displacement engines as well.
