stg II heads on a 383?
i got a set of NEW patriot performance stage II ls6 heads with 2.055/1.57 valves and 59cc combustion chambers for $900 on ebay. i cant decide on a forged 347 short block or a 383 after my warranty expires. would these heads flow enough for a 383 even with a ported ls6 intake and 80mm bbk t/b? i think a 347 would be just as good but who could resist a stoker?
if i get a 347 i was going to use this cam from vinci high performance with thier accelerated lift rockers:
DUR @ .004" 284* / 290*
DUR @ .050" 222* / 228*
LIFT .551 / .551
OVERLAP 57*
LSA 115

that's a pretty hefty intake valve for a stock bore 346 motor. more than likey run into valve shrouding due to cylinder bore interference. IMO, they will flow just fine on a 383 motor provided you do it with a larger bore. like the 6.0L block with the 4.00" bore or the LS2 motor.
nice choice on cam btw.Cold Air Intake, Muffler Delete, Vinci High Performance Dual Valve Springs, Hardened Pushrods, Yella Terra 1.85 Rockers, Some Hydropdipped Stuff, Strut Tower Brace, Some SS Badges, boost/vacuum gauge, fuel pressure gauge, some checkered stripes, drilled/slotted rotors, ZL1addons Stealth wickerbill, Ruxifey LED side markers

Those heads flow like a banshee. IMO you would almost be wasting them on a 346 due to their flow capacity and the valve shrouding issue as mrr23 pointed out. IMO again you need more cubes mainly from bore (helps unshroud I valve) or more rpm so you are moving more F/A mixture, the later still leaves you with the valve shrouding issue and way more strain on internals. Bore and Stroke for me. By the way it's pretty hard to put a smaller valve in a head that is machined for a big valve (2.02 in a 2.055 seat).
Good luck>>>>Dan

i asked nick agnostino at Agostino-Racing engines about the valve shrouding issue and he said: "we use 2.055 intake valves all the time on
the factory bore and they work great. I do not
recomend going any bigger (2.08) as we have tried it
and there are no power gains; actually some small
losses. So in short the heads you have will work great
on the 383 short block."
"Here is quotation on one of our 383's:
Eagle 4.00 stroke crank
Eagle 6.125 rods
Wiseco light weight pistons
FM race series bearings
Childs & Albert file fit ring set
New LS6 block with cam bearings installed
Block square decked, line honed, honed with torque
plates and clearenced for stroker crank
Assembly fully balanced
Engine fully assembled with build sheet attatched
OUTRIGHT PRICE (no core charge required):
$ 3,850.00 usd plus shipping
$ 150.00 Add main studs
