Title: Black 202 heads Post by: oldjohnno on July 21, 2007, 05:35:00 PM From what I can make out from various forums, the 12 port heads from the black 202 seem to be the best flowing standard head. Some say the EFI version is best, does anyone here know if they are in fact different to the carburetted version?

Title: Re: Black 202 heads Post by: NO NAME on July 22, 2007, 08:23:05 AM I am not sure, here is what i think-
12 port flows much better standard than 9 port. 9 port can have more meat taken out off the ports. 12 port has some weak spots. 12 port allows full benefit of multiple side druaght carbs like triple webers. 12 port allows the option of adding efi and if you are getting a head done up, you might be planning to spend $150 but end up spending $1000-$2000 getting work done so the initial cost of the head is nothing, even a vrs gasket set is as dear as a good second hand head. I would look for a good head to start with. |
