Canfield Heads

Well I recieved my 200cc Canfield heads wednesday and they looked ok. They are 200cc heads with 65cc chambers, Chambers were cnc'd. Earlier I posted that the intakes were cnc'd, my bad. I baught them to replace my out of box Edelbrock rpm's.

 

Well I put them on and had the car at the shop to be dyno'd. Low and behold the Edelbrocks put more power to the ground than the Canfield's hands down :shock: I only made 287 hp to the rear wheels and 290 ft. lbs of torque :shock: The only place the Canfields were better was on the lower end? You would think the oppisite.

 

I am going to the races tonight so I will see how they work. I had 34 degrees timing at the time of the dyno so will bump up timing and rejet some as it was a little lean at 14 to 14.5 af.

 

Next week I will probably pull the heads and have them flowed and if numbers don't match what Canfield advertises then Competition products can have them back as I do not want them :evil: I will call Visa and contest charges.

 

The guy's at the shop said the numbers were pitiful for my build and that is why they will only run AFR, Brodix and Victor Jr's.

 

The saga continues...

Canfields require longer push rods than stock to correct the valve/rocker arm goemetry. You need to use an adjustable length push rod to figure out which length you need. In most cases, a +0.100 or +0.160 push rod will work. This could be the reason why your engine is low on power.
