I am, on a carbed 383. Got them as part of a complete L98 that I payed $1000 for. I stroked it to 383ci, did a little work on the combustion chambers and the motor made 430@ the flywheel with a small cam. The heads flowed around 265cfm at .550" lift and 28 in/hg.

Think I paid 1275 for mine and had to wait quite a while. They had a bad batch of castings so they had to redo some. Finally got the heads and they looked great and have been working great.

I got mine around the same time as Cartman. IIRC around $1300.

They are obviously good heads but if you purchase them I HIGHLY recommend getting bare heads and installing your own hardware (ARP studs, brand name springs, etc.).
