    Not a real bad price.
    Im still skeptical about things like that until I have read about them considerably.
    If I were to buy heads this very moment, Id proboally still go with Edelbrocks

    same here even though everyone says AFR is the best bang for the buck--I still say Edelbrock has AFR beat as far as value.

    And yes I have used both AFR AND Eddys.

    We agree again.

    I was thinking you would chime in. Considering you bought new heads not long ago and they didn't pick up much at all IIRC.

    Yup. Spend $2100 for .03 improvement at the drag strip.

    That all depends. 35hp is actually not a bad number...

    Bolting on a set of heads may not help you, if you had dish pistons and an otherwise stock motor...
