Hi Len and group

 

Attached is a Head Flow Data sheet that may give you some information. The data was acquired for me by my mechanic when I was rebuilding my race engine. The first set of data is for the cast iron head that had the complete Westlake modification as well as some serious milling. The second set of data is for the aluminum Laystall head with only minor milling.

 

Both of these heads had the larger valves (TF 1500)

Hello Guy's a long time ago I received this from Jim Buell: Porting and polishing a MG TC cylinder head by Harry  Westlake, the attachment shows the combustion chamber reworked, I have unshrouded the intake valves, but not the other work.

Has any one done this and documented the results?

Best regards

Len Fanelli
