And you are trying to do this on a #96 Pontiac cast iron head?

I wish you a "Semi" truckload of patience and globs of money for actual Dyno Time using Kistler Cylinder Pressure Equipment to get close to your assumptions based on a very very old design head when GM and Pontiac did not even have a flow bench to test their efforts.
Talk to Wade Congdon @ BOP as he was selling the Kistler equipment to the OEMs at one time. Assume $$$$$

Was I not careful enough with my verbage? I didn’t mean to sound pompous. I was wondering if anyone thought a dome on the spark plug side only would be a a possible benefit. I take it no one thinks it’s worth chasing.
