Default Yet another set of ET 245 pics

These came in the other day. Quality looks great and flow numbers look pretty damn good. I only wish I could have set of heads like this for my Mustang at this price. Heads topped out at 347@670 and 242@700 with no pipe. Heads are going on a 396, 11:1, mild solid roller cam, 248/256/mid 600"/112. I've got the stuff to do a turbo setup, but I'm too busy with getting my coupe together, so I'm going to keep it NA and maybe throw a small shot of nitrous at it for the time being.

Now if I can get my engine builder to get the motor together!

I recently had a chance to see some ETP heads and I was impressed with the CNC work. I really like the new single beehive valve springs that can handle .650 lift. Very nice heads, but the price is too steep for my pocket book.

Look damn good.
I still think I should run them until you get everything setup.

Little bit of both. The cam isn't too aggresive that it would make it have bad street manners. I do alot of SD tuning, so I can get it to idle and drive just fine. When the turbo goes on, it will prob be unsafe for the street. It's going to get an 88/98 eventually.

I had the heads sent bare with valves, so they are not set up at all. Valve sizing is 2.08/1.6.

You're going to drive it with the turbo on the street.
Just like the coupe, and I'm going to be shotgun for one ride at least.

I'll definately have a seat for a passenger in the coupe. I'll do the same with the T/A. Here's a pic
