Default C5R heads?????

Are they bad ***? What's the potential on a street car, stroker motor (396) solid roller.

Curiosity has the best of me on whether a 600 RWHP N/A motor would be possible....

do a search on c5r heads. these heads are still somewhat of an unknown because of their price. if the threads on here are an indication yes is the answer to both of your questions <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> . but ive also heard that they like high revs so if you were to build an n/a motor with c5r heads youd really have to rev it (8000rpm) to really see the benefits. theres always turbos though. youll need a 4.10 bore or larger to run them as well.
