milled heads
« on: August 16, 2016, 11:25:45 AM »
if a set of stock chevy heads are milled .030 should the intake be milled .030 as well?? or will a good set of FelPro gaskets make the seal?

In most cases they will not need cut on the intake side or the intake cut for only .030" removed.

As long as port alignment is decent and the bolt holes relatively well lined up you will be fine.  We typically don't start seeing issues until about .050-.060" or so has been removed from the heads and/or block.....Cliff
