2700 bucks in summit.
are they CRAZY?
i almost had a heart attack.

 

That's pricey! I suspect they'll be getting a CARB certification soon.

Has anyone tried these heads yet?

 

remember when ported factory heads were $3500?

The Edelbrocks are a new casting also, and you know they make quality stuff. Just the name alone will probably sell many pairs.

Plus the CNC program they use is from Lingenfelter. Another big name, and those guys know a little about these LS1's.

 

its all about paying for the name.
i believe there will be sets sold.
it will be those guys with the edelbrock heads and a .540 lift cam that make 600hp and win all the street races.
ha.

 

it will be a long time before i'll pay 2700.00 for a new head unless quite a few people have some "proven" results.i'm a machinist,i know about how long it takes to machine aluminum and even though the cnc machines are very expensive 2700.00 sounds way too high.

 

You might as well buy an ugly turbo charger and use your stock heads.

 

WAY TO MUCH.
I have seen them cheeper elsewhere.

 

Well for that price, they better be 20% better than the AFR's!

 

what a HUGE FU#KIng joke....I know a certain company in Arkansas (non sponsor) Keith C#$%^ that is selling these edebrock heads with additional porting and assembled for under $1,800.

 

Those Summit Edelbrocks better be up 30-40 hp on everyone else for that price. I'm sure they won't be.

Guess we all just need to wait and see what they do.

 

Does anyone actually know that these in fact don't provide enough gains for the money or is the bashing just b/c it's a lot of money?

 

I think WCCH has the Edlebrocks with some CNC work for much less then the $2,700 MSRP. Check out http://www.proheads.com.

yeah it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

why dont you guys just get it!! lol...i mean everybody here says you get what you pay for...i mean if you can spend 1500 bucks for headers and 2200 bucks for some afr heads...im sure you can drop an extra 600 bucks for those heads...lol...seems like everybody recommends all the expensive stuff..

 

The recommended list price from Edelbrock is $2685.90.
Summit lists the completely assembled heads (part#61969) for $2398.00.

My Summitt catalog sez $2700.
