The combustion chambers are a little different on the VT, otherwise they are the same. Some people say the early ones are better quality etc but they are the same

Foamy you might remember, because I can't, but doesn't the chamber design change the CC's of the heads? I think it lowers the comp if used on a VN-VS...........or raises it I can't remember! I do know how ever that they are different.

The VT heads have the heart shaped combustion chambers which if i remember correctly means it's a few cc's less (more comp) then the VN-VS heads. They do say that the VT heads suffer more from core shift though.

welcome back Foamy :)

They have less cc's as far as I can remember too so a bit more compression also I'd expect the chamber shape burns a little faster. No one was making new shapes in those times without them being a bit faster burn. I'm sure the exact specs are archived on one of the forums with some searching

Hello Striker and Immortality :p
