<x-charset iso-8859-1>Go with the 044s. The 041s were designed to run hot for emmision purposes. Stick with the 40 * 35 valves and leave the ports stock. The DCNFs should work OK, its down to venturi size,smaller is better. The 1.25 : 1 should be OK and help the breathing a bit. -----Original Message----- From: Brian Schlepp [mailto:bschlepp@itsform.com] Sent: Friday, 10 May 2002 06:07 To: Type 3 list Subject: [T3]which heads Since I will not be able to build the big engine I want till atleast winter, I want to change to dual ports and dual throat carbs. The engine is 1600cc and I believe the cam is stock. I just don't like the way it runs, but I am not looking for a street killer right now, and I don't want to split the case since there is only about 25kmi on her. I need a recommendation for heads (Leon: how are those MoFoCo doing?) 041 vs. 044 vs. ??. I currently have a 009 with pertronix, but was thinking of changing to Compu-fire "distributor-less" ignition so I can hide the spark plug wires. I will be using dual 40DCNF (Shad: I gotta try it - I'll get ready to buy you a beer at Invasion). I was also thinking about using 1.25:1 rockers. Can anybody give BTDT or advice or straighten me out? I need to complete this "small" task this month, since I don't have any plans for out of town shows till June. Thanks...
