I accidentally deleted the video up above of the walk around. Here is another link:
Also here is another link to a dyno video at CincySpeed from this past Sunday: Best number was 448 rwhp 401 torque. Very close to New Era's dyno numbers:

These are some more pics of me working and porting on the heads. because of the results I have been porting LS3 heads as fast as I can.
Porting heads Cutting custom valve guides for heads Porting intake ports Milling the heads down to 64.5cc chamber volume. Reaming and sizing the valve guides Reaming the guide with a custom carbide reamer that takes them to within .0005 of finish size with an accuracy of +-.00005. They are expensive but well worth it when your doing 120 guides in a day. Another shot of reaming the guides.

I think this is a pretty good value. But, let me ask, If you are hoping for forced induction in the future, what sort of head work would you recommend. If I were to install a VVT cam, I would need to pull the heads so I can replace the lifters. I would need to install the new springs, but for FI and modest goals, what head work would you recommend that’s a good band for the buck? (assuming a modest cam with a good idle will be used) For instance, I do not think I would want to mill them, if anything I would want to do what I could to reduce compression.

Cylinder Head - Induction Design School
I am holding four induction system design and tuning schools in 2011. Anyone from Camaro5 will receive a $200.00 discount of the normal cost for the school. The class lasts 18-20 hours over the week end. Please read below for all details or go to our site at Reher Morrison racing Engines.
http://www.rehermorrison.com Advanced Induction System Design and Tuning Presented by Reher-Morrison Racing Engines Classes Conducted by Darin Morgan (Reher-Morrison/Induction Specialist) WELCOME! RACERS, ENGINE BUILDERS, HEAD PORTERS NOVICE BEGINNERS TO SEASONED PROFESSIONALS THIS CLASS HAS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE! THIS CLASS WILL MORE THAN PAY FOR ITSELF IN THE TIME & MONEY YOU WILL SAVE BY LEARNING HOW TO DO IT RIGHT FROM THE START. READ THE TESTIMONIALS THAT FOLLOW TO SEE WHAT PREVIOUS STUDENTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS GREAT OPPORTUNITY! 2011 CLASS SCHEDULE: Last school School October 1st-2nd 2011 $1,095.00 Per SeatCall 817.467.7171 to reserve your seat. Seats are LIMITED so call now! Topics · What is the correct size cylinder head for your engine application? · What is the correct size and type of manifold for your engine? · Casting procedures (From basic design to finish casting) · Valve seat angles (Why are steeper angles better in some cases) · Engine modeling software (Its uses and limitations) · Spark plug location and its effects on power · Wet flow ( Black magic dispelled) · Pressure Recovery Dynamics (Analysis of its effects on power) · Piston speed (Are there limits and if so, what are they?) · Proper port sizing (Overview of air speed in the induction system) · Air flow (Volume flow rate verses Mass flow rate) · What is the correct valve job for your application? · Valve area to bore diameter relationships · Discharge coefficients (The true measure of efficiency!) · Manifold design (What not to do!) · C.F.D. (Computational fluid dynamics and its uses in design) · Modern Pro Stock cylinder head design. · Cost effective power (Current trends in engine displacement) · High amplitude pulsations (Tuning equations made simple) · Engine power bands (Go faster with the power you already have!) · Effective component selection (biggest bang for the buck) · Differences in Supercharged, turbo charged and Nitrous oxide assisted engines verses normally aspirated cylinder heads · AND MUCH MUCH MORE! Brought to you by: Reher Morrison Racing Engines NOTE: The amount of information presented in this course is immense. Please make sure to bring your audio recorders, and calculators! Video cameras are not permitted! Testimonials For anyone that is in the engine building business, or wants to do cylinder head work this class is invaluable. The amount of information that Darin gives you is mind numbing and will take most people weeks if not months to decipher (after re-reading the text, and listening to your tapes if you choose to tape it). The biggest benefit is you get Darin’s real world experience and can go over specifics; he not only gives you the answers but shows you how to find them on your own. Having been to numerous conferences and seminars over the years this is by far one of the best. Most presenters only give you a few hours to go over the content. Darin is there for a full two days. You also get to interact with some really great minds who are attending as well. Applying just the basic principles and guidelines you passed on to me I have been able to get solid gains in not only peak HP but really stout torque gains and much wider power spread than anything I ever achieved before. One of the engines I was working on at the time we spoke has gone on to set a new class record at Bonneville, and one of my recent road racing engines is as fast as any ever in the class but has a power band a good 2,000rpm wider than anyone has ever heard of. Thanks again. Even though I’m not a cylinder head guy, or head porter I found it extremely entertaining, and educational. You’re method of teaching is very similar to what I enjoy, free flowing where you work from an outline and go with it. I am writing to thank you for putting on these classes. I started porting heads last year and to say I was lost is an understatement. I have searched all over for books and articles to help me find my way in this difficult pursuit. I did find some books but they where not anything worth mentioning. Usually these books and articles just skim the surface never really teaching the “meat” of the subject. After two days with you I can safely say that I UNDERSTAND! It all makes sense! Now I can actually start learning instead of fumbling around in the dark.. . I was extremely impressed with your Presentation at the Rose Holman Institute of Technology. When I found out you had a more extensive class I booked a seat immediately. Your class was even more impressive! As an engine builder, engineer and avid speed freak I often attend presentations and seminars. Yours was very well put together and your teaching methods make it easy to follow and absorb. I would say that out of the hundreds of seminars I have attended over the last twenty years yours was the best by a long shot! I first met you in the fall 2007 at Reher-Morrison Racing Engine School and could not have been more impressed. Your presentation at the University of Northwestern Ohio was equally as impressive. I realized that I was in the wrong room right away, I do not have the experience level needed to apply or use the bulk of the information you presented. I am not used to walking into a room and feeling so humbled when anything automotive is the topic. Now this is not to say that I don't realize my limitations. I just seldom feel like the least educated and under informed person in the class room. You are one of the most polite soft spoken people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting in this industry. You always seem to enjoy sharing your knowledge as opposed to hoarding every little detail you have learned. That in my opinion makes you one of the most generous people in racing. Thank you, thank you, and thank you! Finally, there is someone to teach what no one else talks about. When you said that my learning curve would take a big leap forward, I was skeptical. You were right and I am now a skeptic no more. I have seen many presentations at places like PRI, the AETC and many other venues. You were, by far, the best I have ever seen. You actually made sense of a topic that has perplexed me for many years. It’s a very complex subject matter and you seem to be able to put it into context and make people understand. Keep up the good work. After attending Darin's class.........well, if I knew what he was going to disclose/ teach before I signed up, I would have paid $5,000.00 for the course. Darin poured his heart out about real world race engine development & technology on some of the most sought after engines in the racing industry today. Not just book knowledge, actual data, formulas and results from years of testing and claiming world records and world championships in almost every class of racing. The class was priceless, the records Darin holds are proof of his teaching, and his down to earth logical approach was the most easiest of conditions to learn under. Thanks Darin for all your help. I went home and took a cylinder head intake port that I have been working on for weeks. I have been through no less than three other ports trying to get the thing to flow. I now understand how I was going about things all wrong. I used the calculations and ratios you gave us. I did the short side exactly the way you described and the port worked! The first shot it worked better than the three previous attempts. It now flows 18cfm more and its smaller and faster. I can’t thank you enough. Darin, your cylinder head / induction class was very informative. I learned a lot and was able to confirm a lot of air flow info that I had picked up over the last few Years. Great job! First let me say I've known Darin for many years. Not only is his knowledge first class, but so is Darin the person. He is one of the very few people I've known that would bend over backwards for you! His passion and thirst for learning, I've never seen duplicated. After the class, Darin still isn't done. If you have questions, he will answer them. You get home, you have questions, he will answer them. What Darin has provided for our sport is priceless. Do yourself a favor and go, it's an experience I will use everyday in my busi

The classes are taught at Reher Morrison. We have plenty of room in our car shop for a class of 20-25 people. I have taught at least 25 engine building classes here at Reher Morisson and we sometimes have classes that exceed 25 people. Its a 20000sq/ft facility with a variety of engines to look at and use as teaching tools. We have Pro Mod, Pro Stock, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Jaguar, Super Series BBC, Aston Martin, Turbo Integra and many other engines to look at and analyze. Its the perfect place to hold the class.

I headed up the induction R&D at Reher Morrison for a decade before I went to Profiler. I always enjoyed working at Reher Morrison but I wanted to try something different. I missed working at RMRE so I took my old job back. Now that I am working at Reher Morrison again we are starting up not only the Induction class but the engine building class as well. We have Two dates this year for the Engine Building class as well. May 28th-29th and October 29th- 30th.

Back home agian
Now that I am back home again here in Texas my car/hobby has become part of my job.
Since I have been back at Reher Morrison Racing Engines I started an R&D project on some LS3 and LS7 engines. I spent all last month perfecting CNC cylinder heads and camshaft combination's for the LS3-L99 engines and this month I get to start on the LS7 project. I put over 120 pulls on the LS3 trying cams, heads and a multitude of tuning changes to optimize each situation. Now that I have three different CNC programs and various camshafts, tunes and intake combination's its time to start putting together some packages. I am doing supercharger set ups for other Camaro nuts as well. Talk about an easy 600+hp! I have never been partial to superchargers but for making nasty power on the street and keeping the engine speed to a minimum you cant beat a supercharger. The ones I have done are all 550-600hp and they don't need to turn higher than 6500rpm. My car is now awaiting new rubber. Seems its a little useless on the street without drag radials. LOL
