| RE: EDC-E heads high compression? and can a sidewinder |

| There was only one sidewinder that would fit "comfortably" on the low port heads. I think it had a "K" suffix. Ive only seen a couple in my life so dont expect to find one. You can get the others to seal, but you have to choose your gasket wisely or make your own. A lot of people add material to the lower lip. The EDC or "Edsel" heads as I nic-name them are a really good set to run, and respond very well to modification. For mid range torque they are unbeatable if ported right. You can put a good hump and ring in the bowl area like the Hi-Riser had if you put larger valves in. This will permit a large radius under the intake seat. They will have about 69 cc if you just put C-J valves in with a .015 skim cut and you dont have to mill the intake face to get them to seal right at this amount. You will need to weld the corners to get them to hold the C3AZ 6051-B 406 head gaskets on them, or else use the Fel Pro #1020 with 427 bore size. If you are using a smaller bore block, the #1154 BS gasket will work fine. |
