Did you get a chance to slice open a head?

I'm very interested in these. If everything looks good I don't mind picking up a set and being the Guinea pig.

I have a complete set and now a bare head to sacrifice. I'm going over it with Dave Wilcox this weekend then back to the shop to slice and dice.

Reporting soon and also in a magazine article.

After several very knowledgeable cylinder head experts reviewed these heads, including Dave Wilcox and another Mountain Motor Pro Stock competitor that creates his own castings and billet blocks/heads/intakes. Everyone loves these heads! I heard many times that this or that was nicer/better than Edelbrock.

Not bashing Edelbrock. Nothing but respect for all they have done for the hobby.

I now have a bare head and a pair of complete heads and thanks to Mike, a cut up early Edelbrock to compare. Time to fire up the saw and let the slicing begin!

We will also bolt the complete as cast set on the 400 and test them on the 220" Dyno. There are many gain to be made on the as cast set but we want to test them "right out of the box". We may touch a few things up later as most of you would undoubtedly do, but we want to show results of a virgin set first.

Stay Tuned!
