Not everyone needs to run AFR's or TF's lol...port job on some 243's isnt much and a cam's a few hundred bucks. The install job is pretty straight forward. It can easily be done.

I'm a little hesitant about buying used heads. I've read 243 heads do make good power. I just saw a guy yesterday and he told me it's all in the heads
