Really? 30/45/60 30degree back cut.....so a normal 3 angle cut? Did you flow the different angles and the 45 seat with 30/60 on either side flowed the best? That's interesting and certainly not what I was expecting. Having never seen the chamber I'll assume from that, that the chamber is big enough to not shroud the valve. (or the valve is small enough to not need the help)?

How wide did you make the seat?

From what others experienced with Pontiac's mimicking sbf flow characteristics, I thought the buick would follow suit. Apparently not!

Excellent, keep it going, let's see what the exh needs!
