You have to remember that these heads will work with the crate motors as
well..... and believe me there are a lot of crate motors out there! I have
been watching for a few particular types of A/E bodies to come up for sale
so I have been reading A LOT of ads. You would be amazed how many factory
318 E Bodies have the 380HP crate motors in them now. You also have to
remember that the 380 horse crate motor actually puts out more HP then the
vintage big block (with the exception of the Hemi - of course).
The is a market for the heads... in the crate motor market, as well as
in the area of the late model arena.
