Default For Sale Cartek 4X H/C (243's)

They have ~25k highway miles and 30-40 1/4 mile passes with a best of 10.81 @ 130+ with an awful 1.68 60'

From Cartek:
243 castings
Full intake/exhaust/chamber port/polish
Stainless steel undercut valves
Titanium retainers
Dual springs
Viton valve seals
Serdi contoured valve job
CBN milled (11.2:1 comp)

Cam is in the high 230s low 240's with 600+ lift on a 113

On a dynojet these made:
481.9/437.5
Conditions: (Forged 382) 90+ muggy day, 92 octane, 4.10 rear, 19" steel wheels
Still have original dyno sheet if that's of interest.

Would like to sell these as a set and am selling for $1900.
They will be removed next week and checked to ensure integrity.

I also would like to know price excluding the cam. Thanks.

Only thing that scares me is you only have 1 post and 0 trader ratings... but you did join a long time ago.

I joined a long time ago, but almost never come on as I'm usually on the Corvette Forum under the same name. Quite a few folks can vouch for me over there as well in C5 Performance

Bump for a great seller. I know simpleman personally and he's a stand up guy and I would purchase with confidence from him. He being smarter then myself has the same name on www.corvetteforum.com you could gladly go on there and take a look in the C5 performance section as an example see he is a very active member and mostly browses through here. He's offering a proven package that worked well on his car and he's just changing somethings up for the next combination to hopefully be as fast as me one day whene he grows despite being a few years older then me already

I assure ANYONE if they have any concerns they may contact myself to help remedy any concern and many others on the corvetteforum and this forum.

Kinda surprised these aren't gone yet. I don't think the price is off for a set of proven heads that were built right and not cheaply.

I hear that. Just wanted to be sure my price wasn't holding me up.
I also agreed to split the two up to move the sale.

Yes, as they came off from a 382 stroker which was made with a longer than stock (4" Callies) crank. The bore was stock and not resized.
You'll have to check in regards to flycutting the pistons though depending on your cam of choice.
