Dart
We have a set of Dart 355's for 525ci BBC! BUt it isn't put together yet.....So I can't give an honest reply about how they work Although i have heard nothing but compliments on them and the heads look great!

08-26-2005 #3The Dart 335 cnc'd heads are a great fit on a 540" motor with that compression. We have done multiple motors with 335's (but more comp.) that put out 815+ HP. I think 355's on that motor may be a tad big.

If this is a streetcar afr 315 is the best for your compression.For a track car go 335 and try to move compression to 11.1 this will keep port velocity high.Both cnc 335 heads are a toss up
