Default Rapid Now Has Ported 4.8 Heads from ARE

We are now carrying ARE's new 4.8 heads that just did 10.7x on Rich's Camaro. The heads dynoed 430 rwhp on an A4 (locked). Prices retail at $2800 but I will work a GP if there is enough interest. Call or e-mail me for details.

What kind of compression do these 4.8 heads get you? What cam specs did the 430 hp locked?

Compression is in the 10.7:1 area and the cam was a Comp XE-R 230/230/112.

Your not purchasing them from ARE. You are purchasing them from Rapid. What bad press have we received?

If I was going to buy a set of heads, I'd buy the Rapids over the ARE's because the way ARE has abused so many customers so many times.
