Re: 400 sbc and sbc alum heads
i ran a off road z cam, solid, 487/501 i think was the lift, i will be honest i did notice that the deck is no longer perfect, as a street motor the anti freeze ate at some of the water jackets, i would think they would clean up with decking pass tho, do you just want the heads or do u want heads, rockers, intake? i make u a killer deal!

Re: 400 sbc and sbc alum heads
all I will need is the heads really.
do you know about the spring information?...and stud size?
any pict's you can email or pm .
fyi do not ever mix green anti freeze with dexcol, it will eat aluminum at an alarming rate, electrolicis (spelling?)

Re: 400 sbc and sbc alum heads

Re: 400 sbc and sbc alum heads
never did, drove around town, hot lappped at the strip, never an issue, but i think the big griffen alum rad played a big part.

Re: 400 sbc and sbc alum heads
Well some this is off, the heads in the picts u sent me do not have the steam holes drilled.
Which means it over heated in street use, was only drag raced, or used on a non 400 block.
Based on the work that needs to be done to fix the pits on the decks,check for warping fix the warp and drill the steam holes, and the price u want I for them, it would be cheaper and more secure for me to go a different direction.
Are you willing to do a money back including shipping if they are not in good shape?

Re: 400 sbc and sbc alum heads
no machine work has been done at all to the block, machining list needing done to the block is per application. was asking 275 since it was a virgin 2 bolt block.
