My argument wasant even with LSwtfever it was OHC being better then OHV and they are as I stated in shrouding effect against you're "OMG I can run huge ass lifts on my engine" it's because it's a fucking OHV, OHC can run efficiently the same as a OHV at half lift because of less shrouding. OHC - less shrouding - less lift - not as much stress on valve springs, i'll stick with my OHC, easier to work on, less lift, less tq, bucket/shims, etc etc. There are plenty of bellhousing adapters cheap for pretty much any transmission you want. Go through that V8 thread again.
I'll stick with my OHC $300 engine you keep swinging GM's nuts.
You do realize that those 1UZ heads didnt flow as much at the low lift values either right ?
Keep on not comprehending when you are wrong, its amusing.
To recap:
Specifically on the 1UZ that you want to use as your point of reference i'd like to see where you got those numbers, here are the only numbers i've been able to find for those heads. At 28"
Lift Intake Exhaust
.275 203cfm 125cfm
.511 230cfm 150cfm
Compare those to the stock 317 "truck" heads on my engine
.300 204cfm 146.8cfm
.500 250cfm 174.2cfm
Once again my stock truck heads flowing the same on the intake side at low lift, along with more on the exhaust side, and at a LOW .500 lift, flowing 20 cfm more intake, and nearly 25 cfm more exhaust.
Like I said before, all you are doing is crying "wahhh, ohc is better, cause well i say so, it doesnt matter if it makes less power, takes up more space, and flows less air, its betterrrr waaahhh"
Good they have made 1300 HP, with 60 psi ?
The same HP numbers with higher torque numbers have been done on turbo LSx's, you do realize that your precious import engines arent the only things around running turbos, right ?
Good you stick to your $300 ohc engine, with its whopping 261 HP, or 291HP if vvti, and god like 267, or 300 ft lbs, i'll keep my "gm nut swinging" truck engine with its measly 345 HP and 380 ft lbs, stock, with its heads that you cant seem to grasp the fact that they outflow your precious ohc engine.
