Default Anyone use these heads?

Has anyone ever used these heads? They are from ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33617 Supposed to be new ls6 castings. I dont see any mention of core charge. The flow numbers look crazy. What do you guys think of them? Good or bad?

sounds fishy. brand new LS6 heads are already 1300. then the valves, patriot springs, retainers, CNC work and a hand blended finish on it. i dont see how they can sell them for 1900 and make any kind of money. i would research them and the company real good be for you buy them. you might get burned.

Forcefed is a sponsor. You could call them up and ask if you wanted.

see if you can get him to post on here. sometimes some things just seem to good to be true. maybe he just gets the cores real cheap by buying tons of them like patriot does and can still make money on them. being that he is a sponser, it is probably legit. just wonder why i havent seen any post on them. unless i missed it.

forcefed quoted me 2400 for stage 3 fully assembled ls6 heads 2 months ago. they do ls6 heads mad cheap. that was straight up. no core charge. i believe they're clearing out ls6 inventory to delve into AFR castings.....

we got a few sets of new LS6 cores awhile back in a deal we made with a guy. I have very little tied up in the cores so I have no need to recover a $1300.00 expense for LS6 castings.

I put things on Ebay from time to time, it is a great advertizing tool.

The LS6 Stage 3 Race heads going on my 408 flow about 340/280cfm at .600
