Just got off the phone with Jeg's. I ordered a set of the new Jegs/Kaase heads for my 418.. They are supposed to be here in about two weeks.
I still plan on going with a EFI victor JR intake (Spyder). I have to call ed up and talk to him about a cam now.. I went with the hydr. roller spring setup..
IT cost me right at 1900 dollars... That includes the special valve covers and the special pushrods...1640 for the heads, 129 for valve covers, and 129 for pushrods. Everything else should bolt up like stock. I figured that wasn't bad at all considering that it cost just as much or more for the AFR 225's without pushrods and stuff.
They use a 1486 exhaust gasket, and a 1262 intake gasket.. There is supposed to be no issues with piston clearence/reliefs either... (these have 2.10/1.60 valves!!!)
For an instant i thought about putting these on my 331... Nah... Im pretty well done with modding that motor. (its on the verge of splitting anyway)
On a side note these heads hit the shelves next week. There was 138 orders in front of me. They said i should get mine in about 2 weeks.
Also this is almost like an investment. These heads could go up quite a ways in price after they are out for awhile or they could go down.. We will see.
