So looking on a new site i found the other day at some new cylinder heads.

do you guys think a basically all stock aluminum heads with 1.92 x 1.62 valves are worth $1500, or would a remand cast iron heads with 1.92 x 1.62 for $700 be better.

The remand ones could be made into a 2.02 x 1.62 for a extra 100 bucks so that would give a little more power over the aluminum but would they hold up in the long run if i did a 408 stroker kit.


i could also upgrade to a indy cylinder head or edelbrock but i dont think they are worth the 1300 bucks for basically all stock parts

 

i don't think your going to get an extra $800 worth of mojo from the aluminum heads. unless money is no object, then its just a waste of money.

also, rather than get reman'd oem heads that are prone to crack, consider getting "new heads", with redesigned castings that have thicker materials in those key places.

A few guys on here say they like them.

But i was mostly wondering if the aluminum heads were worth it. I dont think they are so i think ill do what you said and get a new style head.

it will be more money but worth it in the long run

 

Clearwater Cylinder if you want "new" heads with 2.02 then here you go.

 

this is what i think im going to get, only heard great things about Engine Quest Heads also. Hell of a price and great quality, they have a website also.

ya i like those one's you posted from ebay,,, you can get 600 lift out of it,,, thats sum thing to look at to

 

yep thats them. You can get them a hundred dollars cheaper, they are called "Iron Ram" 2.02's like you want. No need to spend the extra hundred for the available lift you will never use.

 

anyone have link to the clearwater heads with 2.02 all i can seem to find is heads for the 5.9 cummins but not gas
