Message:
Just got my intake and heads today. Any suggestions on getting headwork done before they go in?

The heads are complete with cams, the whole shot, even got new valve covers.

What were the part numbers you ordered for the heads? What did you pay?

I would have the heads cleaned up. There has got to be some room for improvement if you find a good shop to do it...

Well, what I paid and where I got 'em, I'd kinda like to keep quiet. All I'll say is my buddy works in the plant.

talked to a reputable Dakota guy who's been working with these heads. He ported a set of HOs and then ported a set of stockers, and they flowed identical numbers.

Stockers are available at the junkyard for about $150. Hmm.....

Good...looks like I'll stick with the stockers (upgraded springs, caps, etc)...

What kind of HP gain would you be looking at if you ported and polished the stock heads. I know KRC would do it for 400... is that a good price?

Lets see...$150 for a set of aluminum heads from the junk yard and $400 to have them cleaned up, ported and polished. Yeah I'd say its a hell of a deal.
