should i buy these??

Someone near where I live has these for sale and they seemed relatively cheap. I was wondering if they would fit and would it be worth it??

He says they are aluminum headsc .208 intake valves 64cc and is set up for 7/16th screw in studs. Will this work with my existing tpi intake and hooker 2055 headers??. he wants $300 for the pair. Thanks.

Probably not the best match for TPI.

Super Ram, Mini Ram, Stealth Ram, along with a healthy cam - maybe.

2055's - marginal. You'd probably have to open up the flange ports on them. That would require welding around the tubes on the outside and port matching.
