Does anybody REALLY think that in these COVID times, there will ever be teardowns, as we all knew them? Hell, there isn't even tech inspection anymore. You write what you want your car to be on your tech card, and your wish is granted. I'm waiting for the first guy to show up with a big-block, claiming it's a 283.

The 170 cc intake could be reduced enough for most small block stockers..
the 185 not so much

Can I get the number for the 170 heads. My heads are 168cc. Thanks

They checked valve lift this year at one race. Throttle bodies. Not a piston pull, but some looks

Mike, NHRA shows the Edelbrock heads as having 172 c.c. int. port volume and accordingly adds 5 h.p. to the factor if you use them.

However, as supplied by Edelbrock, they are 185 cc intake ports.

172 is for SS. Stock is same as factory.

Dart is the same way. I ordered a set and they were 180cc. I called Dart and talked to their quality control and was told that the tooling has been worn making the runners larger than advertised. I do know if you find an original older set they do match up to NHRA's specs.
