Those Pro Comp Chinese knock offs were terrible out of the box. On a mild
400HP 351C engine, they down 50 HP to the real deal CHI 3V's. The flow bench
showed the exhaust outflowing the exhaust through most of the lift cycle.
The problem was the sunk intake valve seats. Some of the porters who try to
fix that problem resort to a larger intake valve which looks better on the
flow bench but may have shrouding problems during the critical low lift phase.
Caveat Emptor!
