Hello David...

We have invested an insane amount of time to assure you that our "out of the box" cylinder heads are as good as it gets.....and most importantly are REPEATABLE. Our feelings are that in a production shop, or any shop for that matter, human beings can have a "bad day" and might not be able to produce consistant results that you can rely on. Ive written a great deal about the quality of this product and till you actually see it you would just assume, like most things "out of the box", it leaves a little romancing to be "just right". Not so with this product and it arguably represents some of the finest CNC work in the industry right now. Anyway....save your money and bolt them on....Maybe a few "independents" can chime in here and help me out....I'm too tired.....LOL

Tony M.

That's what I thought. It was just your closing on your previous comment indicated something more might be necessary.

From what have read here, it seems that your heads are the bolt-on cat's pajamas, especially for stock to mid-range displacement motors. Evidence your and LG's 346's in the high 400s rwhp, mikey at Rapd's 402's 550+ rwhp, etc.
