Looks like Edelbrocks heads actually perform!

this is what Im going off of
"First off, these heads are CNC finished by us and not to be confused with the heads that Edelbrock is offering with Lingenfelter’s CNC ports (part#61969)"

I was under the impression that LPE just did the porting and edelbrock designed the heads. Im sure richard can clarify

i believe he was just making the point when he said that to state they they weren't using the pre-ported set that edelbrock sells which are CNC'd by LPE as shipped. they took the as cast heads and ported them to their own spec's. it appears by the numbers that between the new design of the head and their excellent port work that they are getting some very good power numbers from them.
