there are a couple things i also need to kno
a stock 4v head isa good head but i heard that the open chamber flows the best is this true
i dont have the money for heads rite now so i wanna stay stock i kno they flow well so would a little port work be a good benefit, what about milling them down for compression, and which cam should i use with this setup
