BBF 429 ports

Is anyone out there familiar with these cylinder heads? I am considering a HP project with this engine.Problem is that the exhaust ports seem to be "blocked" by a hump.Casting # is D3VE-A2A.Valves are 2.09" and 1.65".
The intake ports are beautifully shaped though.The block I have is a '79 Truck 429.Customer has a '71 Cougar.He wants to kick an Audi A3 Turbo in the back.Any comments will be appreciated.

The "bumps" are thermactor passages.
