I'm looking for a set of alumium heads for my stock 289. I'm just looking to wake up the motor a bit, and not think that ive wasted $1000 or so. I keep being repeated told that AFR 185/165's are the best, but i cant get my hands on these.
The Edelbrock/RPM/Victor heads - is anyone running these, or would you recommend them? I cant seem to find anyone who's running these heads
Trick flow seems popular, but im hearing about issues with piston clearance and fly cutting needed, right down to problematic spark plug holes and wierd exhaust bolt patterns. How much of this is true?
My biggest concern is, can i bolt a certain head to my STOCK motor without much difficulty. I'd like the edelbrock heads as ive head that they are the most trouble free with installation, but im also hearing they are 'junk'
Any advice appreciated!
