How will Victor Jr. 23degree heads do on a 383 10-1 compression motor?
I've been thinking about installing some Vic Jr. heads on my 383.In the near future I'll probally be installing the mini ram. With these new items do U think the car will run okay?Check out my sig below & tell me If the combo will work. I know the cam is a little small but with some 1.6 rocker arms I can increase the lift values. I don't really want the car beating & chopping to much right now! I only want to buy heads once.

i think it will make good torque but it does need more cam
you won't have drivability probs with something in the 225-230 range if u use a 112lsa.
You need to pump the lift up and the 1.6s will only get you to about .5
Save a little longer and get a XE hydroller at the same time you put the heads on. You won't regret it.
PS, I think there might be a minor port alignment problem. the miniram normally comes in a standard size intake port. the vic jr heads a close to a 1206 felpro gasket. You might want to have them make the miniram sized for a 1205. That will split the difference.
