Does anyone have any experience with these heads? I am considering them and for the money they sound like a pretty good deal.

Took a chance on those heads. Saw a 0.4 second improvement in ET and a gain of 4 mph. Anyone know if this is a substantial gain or what?

I have a "worked" AOD and 4.10 gears. I am thinking that maybe the stock injectors will have to be replaced.

injectors would be a good " next thing". be sure to get matching MAF to go with them.

You're not kidding. With those heads, 24lb injectors, calibrated MAF, and a 3000rpm stall torque converter, I could be into the 12's myself!

I'm running a GT40 intake. My converter is not helping, only a 2500 stall.

how much did ya pick up those heads for? what're the specs? i dunno if i just overlooked it but i'm not seeing any of that and i'm wanting some heads....
Also if you haven't gotten any aftermarket UCA/LCA's that'd help ya hook up... as well with any suspension upgrades... slicks are cool too!!!
