Re: Korman heads...

<<<Want to do engine work next summer...like the looks of what 
Korman's
stage two head has to offer.  How's the driveability of this head on 
a
street car?  Any other opinions/experiences with this or similar
cam/head work?  Thanks...>>>

Dan,

I have the Korman stage II head on my '88 325is; just got it 2 weeks 
ago..  My overall impression is that you definitely need to also do 
headers at the same time.  The head and cam combo (you are replacing 
the cam right?) gives plenty of power up top, but robs some low end 
power.  My car has a 152,9xx mile old cat, and stock exhaust 
manifolds, so the increased flow of the head isn't helping as much 
because of the exhaust restriction..  When I get my NEW korman stage 
II head (already broke, not the head's fault), I'm going to also put 
test pipes and headers on it..

Later,
