so tell me what can be bad with Chinese cast aluminum? Ford uses chinese suspension parts in all their new vehicles, i have a friend in the industry who deals with their suppliers.
notice how much is mentioned about them needing work to even to perform to level of what the were made to copy, it seriously is another 3-400 bucks worth of porting that needs to be done, assuming that the assembly is good to begin with (procomps have a HUGE problem with this). much more worth it to go to the junker and grab the whole topend off an explorer for $100-200, then put in a $100 spring kit. even more worth it to start with one of the more popular aluminum aftermarket heads, and if you know and trust the seller, a good used or nib set can be had for the same price as the imports.Haven't made up my mind yet. I hear ya.
Check it out, just found a great review from a machinist that bought these heads.
