Man, I just bought a pair of these heads for $200 dollars more. I'm also slower now than I was with stock heads milled .030! I wouldn't recommend a pair of new heads from anyone.

I've got a Comp cam 218/222 with lots of lift, like .566 or so. $1095 is a great deal if you've got cracked heads or something major wrong with the stock ones.
I'm just letting you know what I experienced. Trying to save you some mulla! As I stated earlier, the facts in my experience with the heads, Stay stock, mill them .030, and get wild with a dremel. Went 13.50's on the stockers, went 13.90's on the sexy looking cnc ported and polished, big valve aftermarkets.
It is TEA tuned.
They said they would mill them for free, so at least get that done.

If your car/truck doesnt run better with more comp.... Id say you got a huge chamber by accident, bad tune, or have some other problems.

Here is a link to info on our website including flow numbers:
