I agree: the current heads flow well, even with just 0,500" valve lift. The 'new' set would be about the same, but with a tiny bit more porting, maybe Be-seats and upgraded valve train package. They would have a little more beef left in the heads as I would start with virgin heads and like a bit more CR, so they would get a little better in all aspects. Then a cam with more lift and you have more potential. At least thats my thinking.

I don't think I want to sell the current engine as I can use lots of its parts from it and I am VERY curieus how its looks on the inside. Only if I can see what it looks like will I be able to judge how well certain solutions have worked out.
But thats all in the far future due to $$ needed
