Heheh...Just like Steve, cut right to the heart of the matter...I believe they recommend the 979s...BUT, would they still recommend them for cars running 20+ lbs of boost???
Reason why I'm asking, I had the 981s on there with my last cam(MM208/208 flat tappet)...wiped the #3 exh lobe...had 13k miles on it...All the other lobes looked fine, just #3 exh didn't want to be bumpy anymore
...When the heads were assembled, they were supposed to go on a motor that had the KB1txb cam in it(which they recommend seat pressure of about 104#, I think it was)..That is why I went with the 981s...plans changed and I built a completely new motor(w/MM208/208 cam) and just put the heads on it...Well, 13K miles later, wiped lobe
The heads are the Stage JRs from David Chase(cnc bowl work done to them, no egr or heat crossover provisions in them), car has the PTE-51 turbo w/PTE exh housing, 50# injs, TH DP, CAS V2 FM, +.030 TRW/SpeedPro forged, steel center main caps, yada yada yada...Plans are to run in the 11s...
Keep the suggestions coming...Thanks everyone...
