Looks like the exhaust ports are raised .300 on the dart pro 1’s . You should be able to make it work .

I beleive they are dart aluminum heads pro 1.Have to call frank at scorpion to confirm" i didnt know they had different ports unless the were tall decks.

most after market cylinder heads have raised exhaust ports. Brodix makes a race rite head that keeps the exhaust port in the stock location. i think Edelbrock heads are also stock location . the brodix bb2 heads have their ports raised .600. Luckly you dont have those or you would really be fuked .
