Re: 400 Heads

[Herb <zephyr9900@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Joey,

Thanks!  I thought as much but we have a self proclaimed MoPar expert with a
junky 66 Charger here in town that swears he did the same swap and bent the
valves by hitting the block on the smaller cylinder bore.

Herb,
 
All you need is a good valve job and please have them surfaced for piece of
mind and then bolt them on, the little loss in compression won't make a
difference in your application. Good Luck!,
