Tom, yes the block is ported and the cylinder edge relieved. For me, the important thing apart from the comparison was the fact that the ‘37 head choked at about 0.25 in lift. The restriction was not the valve opening it was the transfer from valve chamber to cylinder. Once this was resolved I have a head with higher compression than a Ricardo, but which flows like a ,37. Can you see a picture? No chance.
