I'll let you know soon. I ordered a set of stage 3 6.0l's for my 427 a couple of days ago. I'm sure they'll be great, FFHP has a good rep.

Mine bieng done right now. Went with stage 2 5.3 version. Also, Brad will design a custom cam for me based after he flows the heads and my drivability criteria. Brad is one hell of a nice guy to work with, I expect nothing but good things to come from his recommended combination.

FU Vic. Before I spend a lot of money on heads I want to know what people think about their FFHP heads.

Give me a call about what you were enquiring about. They're in.

My valves are Ferrea. Backcut, I don't know, I'll have to ask. Also comes with bronze valve guides and Patroit duals. TEA cnc program. Very, very inexpensive compared to others similar heads. I will say that the only sponsor who is within driving distance from me sells 6.0l stage 3 heads for over $700 more.

I have there stage 2 heads shaved .030 and I love them. With a decent cam and a safe tune i pulled 405 rwhp and 385 rwtq. The peak numbers on my setup are not extremely high but the low end and mid range power with these heads are great. Also Scott and Brad are two of the nicest people I have delt with.

Yeah, its me. Did you check out my sig. for my newest upgrade. Did Scott ever get his car together and to the track? Scott wanted my dyno sheet for the head and cam package that I got from you guys so I will send the before and after dyno pull with the h/c pull against the STS pull.

So you're at 405 with these heads? With stock heads and a similar set up I'm at 395RWHP NA. If I were to buy any brand of heads and not pick up 30HP, I'd feel my money was wasted.
