The port is straight with the valve, more importantly all the ports are shaped the same. Not like most auto engine designs where the ports are inefficent mirrors of each other.

Sort of...They have a left and right turn, just not near as drastic as a conventional head.

I'd be real leery about that much motor for that price. You could spend that much in just those heads and intake. Fresh dosen't mean it isn't a worn out ol' POS...I'd be asking some serious questions. I'd also wonder at what RPM it made that power.
