i'm thinking transfer the L98 heads.

go with cheap standard 400 crank kit.

convert to wet sump. I think all the passages are already there.

its intended to be a street engine. The advantage is simply the lighter weight.

Won't that leave the car down awhile? Why not get some cheap chinese alum heads?

 

[guru]

Wow that is going to drive like a desiel.

Yea, thats what I have. $800 shipped to my door complete. Bird has seen my engine run with them.

With my l98 heads I probably run low 12's

The L98 heads are going to be really fun on that motor. Get a Q-jet performer intake and rock on.

Might want to at least invest in a retro fit hyd. roller cam. Save yourself some trouble with modern oils.

Yea, I took a chance with those heads. I found them on the Internet(new). It was just going to be test engine for different engine combo's. I was really surprised at the heads when I got them. SOMETIMES you take a chance -it works out.:amazed::chinese:

I have L98 heads too, ported the snot out of them (they are being discussed in the Vizard Cyl head book with lots of pics) Not hoping on tons of power but around 350 would be nice.

U guys really think L98 heads with 10.5 compression are all that bad on HP??

the cam I have is supposed to be nearly 375 hp, and 425 torque...the old ZZ9 cam from TPIS.....drives great ......

I did have a set of Edel aluminnum heads some years ago, and same engine that combo was no better....I forget the part # but it was straight plug, and smallest chamber I could get about 8-9 ? years ago....

Generally, it goes AFR then Brodix then Canfields- at least from the builders I have talked to lately. Me, I buy China heads then port a little on them and I have a good set of heads.:bump:

 

[kwplot34]

I can't comment on the other 2 heads,i have never owned anything but Brodix heads and intakes But i hear there good.

unfortunately, after shipping and taxes those heads will run us guys over here as much as $3000 :shocking:

I am saving my pennies for some track 1 CNC 215cc heads.

That desrves a double :shocking::shocking:
Would it be cheaper if one of us bought the parts and shipped them over to you,or would it still work out the same in the end :idea:
