Got the heads today sorry the pictures suck so bad only had a cell phone.

 

Nice dude, so when you gonna slap these suckers on??

 

I found a set of stainless valves for 100 bucks so I think I am going to buy a set of them new springs and have the heads gone over befor I put them in. Because I am also doing a cam soon.

 

Double check the size of the valves before you order, some R/T heads came with 2.02 valves, IIRC.

You can check with a set of dial calipers.

 

you should throw some 1.7 HS on those

aim i was curius whats good heads too run with the 1.7 and what reccomended on pushrods ext for my 5.9 im kinda going to the route you are with the stock cam just trying to make it a beefy DD. im looking to do heads and the airgap and be done ?

 

For pushrods, a hardened set or some chromoly ones would be fine if you aren't camming it.

The stock length rod is .6925, but I've heard the ford length of .6936 can be used as stock replacements and those can usually be found cheaper. may want to PM RM_Indy about that and see if he agrees.

If he says that works, I've got a set of Hardened FORDs I was about to send back to Jegs, I'll sell them to you if you want. They are new in the package for $50. 5 bucks cheaper than JEGS or summit and you wont have a handling fee for any taxes.

 

I thought all RT heads came with 2.02 valves.

Yeah, they don't flow much better than stock. I plan on getting the Iron Ram heads. After that i am done with the engine. But before I get the heads, i am getting the 4 wheel disc brake upgrade. Then a front rotor upgrade.

 

THis lists the flow data for stock heads, iron rams and the RTs with 2.02 valves:

I just always thought RT heads had 2.02 valves.

 

http://shadydellspeedshop.com/magnumrt.htm this is some flow numbers of ported heads

 

depends on the porting done. But those are some good numbers. Need to match them with a cam and intake though. THose are race flow numbers for high RPM powerbands.
