Great Deal on Alum. Heads...

In response to all the "which heads should I run?" and similar questions...here's a link to a set I would buy in a heartbeat if I was in the market. Great product, nice #'s out of the box, and room to port a bit.

click me

Re: Great Deal on Alum. Heads...

I would pm William Stillwell (he is on this list wkstill I think) as he had some
major problems with his set that he bought brand new. Like pin holes
where there should not be etc.....

Agreed! They work well but there are so many better ones out there.

And the thing is, they really arent that much cheaper than a set of trick flows, holleys, or afr's. If you are already spending 1k on heads, then go ahead and get the best for a couple of hundred more. It would be different if they were in the $700 range. Changing the heads is just too much work for me to want to do it more than once just becuase I wanted to be cheap.

yep. That's why it took me 5 years of owning the cobra before I could afford to put AFR's on it
