bluestreek Gearhead Posts: 1724 From: Athens,GA Registered: Jul 2001	posted 11-24-2001 02:14 PM How much can you safely angle mill a 289 head? They are early '69 2 brrl heads with semi-open chambers. Would like to be able to mill off the open area since these heads have shown to flow better than the closed chamber 289/302 heads that I have.. IP: Logged

Why not just get some Darts or 351W's castings? ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00 & '01 Fleet of FoMoCo products Moneymaker Bio US Class Nationals link IP: Logged
