Thanks! That purple degreaser mixed with new parts was the secret.
Because i already had these heads from my old set up. Just got them cleaned up with some new valves. Im sure theres better H/C combos ive could have done but im content with what I got. thanks for the comment!

thanks everyone! I'll post up videos and DYNO numbers next. and maybe some track times if weather permits
The car had some issues starting up, higher C/R maybe. But also notice the ground cable near the alternator side got so hot it fried itself into two pieces. Got some thicker gauge battery cable and it did the trick. I must say, the 6.0 is something else lol. I should have went this routh over my previous set up.. o well

oh yeah, I am on the hunt for a Wolfe 6 point bolt in cage with swing outs. Located in California if anyone knows of someone selling it. New, used, it dont matter as long as its clean.
Selling my track set up to fund for some different parts..Prostars
