I had the same issue along with every other type IV and i took a file and cleaned up all the extra flashing in between the fins on the head and all the holes that air is suppose to travel through and would not b/c of the extra flashing from when they make the heads, then i cut a 1/2 to 1 inch of the bottom of the tin that wraps around the back of the head closest to the back of the car so the air would travel by it easier i even opened the fins up al-little more. now both of my back cyl run equal and it came down almost 40 to 50 degrees because of that. |
