Heli coils hold better than just the original material and they tested this on the “torque test channel” using an ARP l19 studs. They tested time serts as well and the heli coils out performed everything else. Using red thread locker when installing helicoil keeps them from walking out over time.
Brodix does themselves a huge disservice by not advertising all the configurations you can get their different heads in. It wasn’t till I started reading you and another head guy post on ST and talking about catalog heads but in different port configurations than what’s advertised as shelf heads.
Man, I saw this video pop up and thought, whoa, those might be my heads. Then I saw Phillip written on them. As you mentioned, a little disappointing with the as cast numbers. However, I know with the Ferrea valves, 2.350's and all the work you do, they will come out quite a bit better than that. If you do the after port work and 2.350 cut video, I look forward to seeing that. *** Question: could these heads be cut for a 2.375 valve, or would that eat too much into the exhaust seat?
@@WeingartnerRacing hmm, seeing as my engine will eventually see nitrous, I probably wouldn’t want to reduce the exhaust valve size for a slight increase in intake valve size (2.375). Unless you think it would still be beneficial. I trust you to do what you think is best for my combination; 13.2:1 582, that we talked about you custom spec’ing a cam for. 1000+hp NA that will later see 250-350 worth of nitrous.

I learn so much from your BBC videos, you really explain things well.

I will have to watch the video. I have seen more helicoils pull than timserts.
@@WeingartnerRacing I thought it was weird because time serts definitely seem to be a better design.

Probably because some of the things we ask them to change slow their production down.
Eric great vidja 🤙🏼
Thanks for watching.
Thank you sir
Thank you for watching.
WOULD that fit in a standard bore of of a Chevy BBC 427? IS the real question..
No
Thanks
Thanks for watching.
why does brodix not tell the true number like you

I will do a follow up video. I could have cut them to a 2.375intake valve but I would have had a 1.85 exhaust valve.

Don’t worry about your editing, we’re here for the information
I appreciate that but I really need invest some time to make the editing better.
Is the 345cc head in the back a BB3? If so can you do a video on it please?
I will later in the future.
For the price of these heads they could manually blend that step out.
Maybe.
