Mystery ported LT1 heads on ebay...
#21
I must say that doesnt look like a bad deal at all if they are legit. One of 2 things is happening here. The seller doesnt actually have a clue about the specifics and they may be good heads AND he just really sucks at listing items on ebay and how to get the most for them. OR he is trying to hide the fact that something is wrong or unknown and is trying to pass them on. If you are on a serious budget I would say go for it. have them throughly checked out. But if the price goes up run like Forrest Gump.

**update** So I'm still keeping my eyes peeled for used ported heads for sale before I shell out $1300 for Ai 200cc heads. I'd like to avoid the 2-3 month downtime while Ai ports my heads (and save some$$).Looks like the "mystery heads" LOL (ported by CNC performance whoever the **** they are) are getting too pricy ($450) to gamble on some unknown/questionable porter. I did find another set of heads which caught my attention...some used LE2's ....they should offer the same airflow/HP I'm looking for. Only problem with them is scuffs on one of the combustion chambers....please take a look: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PORTE...Q5fAccessories
It was supposedly fixed by Lloyd....but I don't know....would any of you run these on your car or should I steer clear of them? Trolls, you comments are not needed here....you know who you are ...take that elsewhere.

I just noticed those CNC performance ported heads I started the thread about got re-listed AGAIN (3rd or 4th time?)...this time for $850....WTF kind of shenanigans is this seller up to Sounds shady. I'm just going to be patient and get my Ai ported heads unless somebody is selling some in the next couple weeks. I'm getting antsy to get my car back on the road ASAP

If you dont have the money to do it right then dont do it at all. A fella i know did a blower, cam and all other crap, then didnt have $1500 to get his heads ported....

And who bought the heads? I bid for $450 cause I knew I could sell parts of it to recoup any/all losses if I needed to.

You can buy demonstrated performance, or you can buy claims. There are no guarantees in life, but you can mitigate risk by working with known quantities vs. unknowns. Good luck either way w/ your project!

To hell with the idea of ebay heads....both of them look like shady as hell deals with questionable results. I'll just get Ai to do them so I don't have to worry or second guess what I'm getting and so they get milled to get 11.5 compression. If I have any issues I can visit them personally within a 30 minute drive of my house....can't say that about anything off ebay. Maybe they'll give me a discount if I said I heard about them from ls1tech.com...
