P147006 Image Large

Steve Brule of Westech Performance Group in Mira Loma, California, handled the final assembly of our 327. The cylinder heads we’re starting with are ’64 Chevy double-hump castings with 64cc combustion chambers and 1.94/1.50-inch valves. We had them checked and rebuilt by JMS Racing Engines in Monrovia, California; this included the valve-spring upgrade and a conversion to modern positive-control valve seals. For years, these were the heads to have for a hot small-block, surpassed only by the 2.02/1.60-inch valve versions, often referred to as fuelie heads. With the pistons we’re using, compression should be about 10.0:1.
