Re: Re: "Heads" 318, 360, or Mag5.2 that is the question

Have you thought about the Edelbrock aluminum heads, they are for LA motors
which I think are the same as pre-mag's.
They're about $1,200, I would think the only modifying that would need to be
done, would be to gasket match the intake manifold.
I'm sure they would make much more power than the others.
I know there is someone on here with them, please comment.
