In case anyone is wondering, I called Summit about them, they told me Dart said they wouldnt be out till October, and they didnt have pricing, or any other information yet.

By the time they are out trick flow should have a set as well. Only time will tell how they perform.

I saw the ad in Car Craft this month for them. Isn't it great how the performance industry loves our little GM V8

Holy Crap, less than 1300 bucks a set, assembled. I was expecting them to be over 2 grand.

i noticed the 225s dont flow as high as the AFR 225s for exhaust and intake, very close though. Darts 205 has better intake flow but its exhaust flow is lower all around compared to AFRs 205, also very close #s. If they do sell for about $1500 i think they would be worth it.

Looks to be a really go value. I suspect heads are going to get a lot cheaper very soon with so many new castings hitting the market.

I think that's not true. I believe the afr and all pro's be keep there value. I belive I'll be getting a set of these darts and then port them some more and see what they do.

Stil for 1300 they look to flow very well and it thats complete I'd say there a very good value....I wonder what I pay for them,I'm direct a few different companies including Dart

I'll be getting heads for the GTO real soon....
