anyone with L31 heads

i am thinking of buying the L31s for my fiance's 91 RS. the motor will be about 9.5 to 1 with an XE 274 cam. Pace parts has them for 484 fully assembled. that is about what i would have into the stock heads that i have if i fixed them. the pace parts ones are drilled for 86 and prior intakes.

any comments will be appreciated.

theyre sweet heads but you need to watch out for the locks hitting the valve guides with high lift cams. If you have the ones set up for .500 lift then you should be ready to go. By the way, you need headers as the stock manifolds wont bolt up.
