TBI heads aren't worth the trouble. If you want cheaper than new heads, check the posts - many are getting #416 heads from earlier models (I just did a pair) - and there are others, like 081's maybe - I can't remember all the numbers - do a search - check Sitting Bull's post on porting and see which heads he chose.
