Those heads are not worth crap because they are the 882 castings. These are the same heads I have on my 400 which came on it stock, but mine have the 1.94/1.5" valves. They are crack prone, and they tend to overheat. Plus, unless they are heavily ported, they do not flow for sh*t. They are 76CC combustion chamber heads, which is a good chamber size for a big CI motor like a 383 or 400, but they only flow 137.2 CFM on the intake, and 95.4 CFM on the exhaust which would not feed a big engine very well. Trust me, I know because I have these heads on my 400 and they suck.

I would not reccommend buying these heads, they are pretty much worthless.
