Default Why hasn't anyone jumped on these yet?

These are cheap heads, why hasn't anyone bought these yet.. the flow #'s look nice.. but is it a scam? I wonder what their stage 3 is like

Aren't 853's standard LS1 castings? It says heads are machined to lower compression but from the pics it doesn't look like anything was done to the chamber. I also dont trust anyone who keeps bidder Id's private much less someone with 7 feedback total.

I think a few FL shops use CNC, inc for their packages. I know somone who got a set in a package from Norris a few years back, they make power for sure. Can't say anything for the person selling them though.

I'm thinking the same thing. How did they get to a 71cc chamber without touching it?

I do not like the port design either. I have seen them on there a couple of times and it looks like most everyone else feel the same way.
