Default Need some info on heads

The motor I have, after talking to summit directly about it, is running a semi-ported version of the GM 305 heads with bigger valves. Does anyone have any info or flow charting of these heads? I've searched high and low and can't find anything. Seems like Summit stopped building these motors about 5 years ago so their website is a dead-end. Any info is appreciated guys.

You may have a 305 in the car.

Are they 081 castings? Thats what I have on my boat. They came out in the 305 Tune Port Camaros.

It's a 350. They're aluminum heads, searching on sites I can only find the CI version, so it's getting disheartening. I can't get a casting # as the car is at the shop right now. Just wanted to know if anyone had flow numbers - from what I'm told they flow about the same as the 113 heads but I'd like to know if they're worth porting or just getting a new pair in the future.
