Not exactly, you can order the hyd roller and they should be about right for a moderate Solid Flat Tappet cam.

I was looking at the bare heads as they seem to be a good price. I did a little internet searching and as usual, mixed comments, but what I would do if you buy the heads complete is to take the heads to a machine shop and let them disassemble, clean, check valves/valve seats, and spring pressures.
Not a bad deal complete, but buying them bare would allow you to build them the way you wanted and matched for your engine specs. I don't know if this may actually wind up costing you more, but you would know what you have - just my opinion. |

Has anyone ever flowed these heads and do they flow comparable to out of the box, unported E-heads?

With a very light clean up they flowed 300CFM. Castings look really good. Waiting on pistons to go on a 428 street engine so no results yet.

So does that mean a pair of bare heads is only $478.50?
Seems pretty cheap! I would buy them bare and then use good parts. JMO Edit, bare heads are sold individually. . .

I bought a set a few minutes ago and I bought a set a while ago.
I won't buy another set of eddy's again the speed master is a better head All the way around. Good parts long valves, just so much better then the Edelbrocks. I ported a set myself and got over 300 easy. Just do it, Buy the SM heads and be glad you did. GT. |
