I use brass thin wall tubes for head bolts & push rods. I'm not sure about the water jackets unless your using epoxy, running them dry and running methanol or similar. Good luck!
I use an epoxy which is resistant to most chemicals and fuels called Belzona 1111. Been using it now for cylinder head and block repairs for years with great success.
YES. We ran a Super Modified Firebird in the 70's and had Maved Out (for the time) 722 castings on 366 inch motor. We had to run stock heads but were allowed to do pretty much what we wanted to them.
Good stuff. I'm looking forward to your comparison of 275-280 cfm d-ports vs your ram air V or ported edelbrock heads to see how much power they can actually make versus aftermarket stuff.
I think anyone will be hard pressed to find a Pontiac ported more than these LOL. Thanks for commenting and following my channel. Please subscribe if you haven't already. Come hang out with us on our Bench Racing Podcast every Wednesday night from 7PM to 8PM Eastern.
I do it all the time and have been doing it for 30 years or better, but before finding the epoxy I use now I didn't do it to this extreme. Now that I have a superior epoxy compared to what I use to use. I now can get very creative. @@kurthammack9867
Love it! Filling the exhaust crossover is not easy in a home garage. Don can you provide the flow numbers? The 280cfm d ports the tn guys do looks like street n strip compared to yours.
Filling the heat cross over is always interesting even in a shop LOL. I'll probably flow these, but the flow numbers don't really matter to me. I'm more concerned about the cross sectional area.

I knew I was going to hit water when I started :) Its okay though, because I have some killer epoxy that I can fix them with. Belzona1111, it hardens like steel and resist alcohol, and fuel.
I have Up here in Toronto A set from Mike V. Which I just measured 2.45 x 1.20 and they have Tubes & all set up to assemble They flow really Great! they will make a great street motor in my 69 Judge 👌
I have a killer epoxy we use here called Belzona 1111. It hardens like steel and resist heat up to 300 degree's Fahrenheit and holds up to alcohol and most fuels. It stays put unlike other epoxy's I have used in the past. Thanks for commenting and following my channel. Please subscribe if you haven't already.

@@dcimotorsports1111 Don I need to buy some of this for an engine of mine. I really wanted to run E85 pump but I have one intake port with the typical epoxy. Where do you buy the epoxy you're talking about? Is it alcohol resistant right out of the tube or do you have to apply a sealant to it after applying?
@@stevesmith1101 Its alcohol resistant right out of the package. I buy it on Ebay because its hard to find locally. Here is an item number for a container big enough to cover quite a bit of area. EBAY Item # 266640403754
We use a killer epoxy ww3.belzona.com/products/belzona-1111/ that I stumbled onto about 5 years ago. It with stands heat up to 300 degree's and resist most fuels and alcohol.
@@waylinbuerger2753 It makes JB Weld look like bubble gum lol. Belzona can actually repair crankshafts, cylinder walls all kinds of wear surfaces and machines like steel.
@@dcimotorsports1111 Belzona sounds like some great stuff. It would be cool if you made a video sometime sharing your experiences with it and what it all can fix in more detail. It's nice hearing about the product from someone that professionally uses it.

The title is spot on. I have never seen an iron pontiac ported halfway through the water jackets

I think He said that He was going to epoxy the holes, that won't work, will it , can You reliably do that?

Thanks that's really good to know!
some of that metal looks so thin you can see both sides of it....i have some radically ported 13s but nothing like that
Ha Ha, its like you can see right through the ports LOL.
How do you keep the water out ? I know about the brass tubes.
