Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Digest Number 769 INDY versus Edelbrock,versus stock?/

[Joe <jgray_55@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've "HEARD" that the Edelbrock heads are not made
that good?(quality issues)??  Supposedly alot of
casting flash..etc? ANY ONE tried these? I had
"thought" of the INDY SR401  street heads kit. I have
a set of 219C heads(bare) also a set of 2993's(bare
also.). More suggestions...WHO is good/reliable with
modifying AMC heads??  I'll send them to a reliable
source! Thanks again,Joe
