Our Stg 1.5 head costs $1559, the new 5.3 cores are $300 and then the "hand finish to competition level" adds another $250 so I don't know if you would call them cheap, but yes, everything we do has a warranty. Most people think its crazy, but we did that to emphasize the confidence we have in the parts we use on our heads.
Straight from the horse's mouth...and backed up w/action....not excuses.

I am hesitant to elaborate but the last two sets of 5.3 Stg 1.5 heads that I "hand finished to competition level" flowed
300 @ .550
312 @ .600
317 @ .675 (port stall)
Very nice Brian...love the .550" #'s I smell some new found power coming How did the exhaust side #'s come out? btw.....you have my shipping address....yes?

Can we just add a smile that just makes copies of others peoples smiles without their premisson then sells those copied smiles to other smiles that don't know they are buying facsimile smiles instead of real smiles?

That would really save a lot of typing.
