Super Brumfield Head

This is one of my blueprinted Super Brumfield heads with 117cc chambers.
The 'Super' differs from the regular Brumfield heads. Lowered plug seats, necessitated by the shallow chambers, are recessed rather than spotfaced flush with the top of the head.

Cranking compression with a Stipe 340 cam is 160psi. Vroooomm ! !

Re: Super Brumfield Head

Wow! An 11 to 1 comp ratio on a Mod A. Well a little less! 14.7 lbs atmospheric pressure (14.7 X10= 147 lbs, 14.7 X11 would be 161.7) This is given the 100% of volumetric efficiency at cranking speed. WoW that's some head! Pretty to look at too!
