Default Eddy heads and HS 1.7s

1. Can you run Edelbrock heads with NON ADJUSTABLE HS 1.7 RRs?
2. Do you need the guideplates if you can use the 1.7s? I would think NO because the 1.7s connect the intake and exhaust rockers and will not spin off.

I am thinking of Doing Eddies with a M-1 and redoing the Y-pipe.

those eddy magnums are cheaper than any other site i went to!!! Thanks!!!

If I can't use the eddy heads with my RRs, I might just get a cam and buy the stage 3 indy heads (I will have to put it off for about 9 months). It is not about money, I will be moving to a different area, and I will have an auto craft shop at my disposal. I don't want to do a cam completely alone.

Yeah those Eddy heads don't take the pedestal mount rocker arms, its stud mount Chevy rocker arms. That's a little additional cost they like keep quiet about.

The Chevy rocker arms are cheaper than any dodge parts though.
