Are These Heads Worth It?

mark, just talked to chris, he says they are iron heads (have the steam holes, doesn't know if they'd work on a 350) they have a slight porting (not professional, but no bad or wrecked) job on them. This was pm'ed to me, so work around it. They're 400sbc heads. Not sure of the casting #s yet.

$165 including shipping.

No.

They are probably 882s, or 624s... I've thrown both in the trash, sold them as scrap iron, etc. I consider them a blight when they exist on my property, and do everything possible to avoid them or rid myself of them when I discover they have succeeded in invading.

Catch me when I'm in a worse mood, I'll tell you what I really think of them.

They are the same castings that were responsible for the awsome 165 HP and 180 HP 350s of the 70s. A disgrace to the community.

Thank you, you're a lifesaver, or moneysaver more accurately.
