Not sure of the brand. There are no markings or stampings anywhere on the heads that are obvious. They look like my TW heads on my 66 coupe. Just wondering 'cause I picked them up for $750.

Nope. Not a bit. You'll have to do better than that for an Id.

I'll get some close up over the weekend. I haven't been home all week to even look over some of the stuff I bought for the car.

Definitely Trick Flow Twisted Wedge.

My TW's that I just put on didn't say anything on the ends either. Not sure why . But there is a "TFS" cast into the top of the head under the valve covers.

So where'd you see that in his pictures ? Could be anyones heads, including my Canfields based on the slightly canted rockers.

Yeah it's his pic. Didn't know Canfield's had canted valves??? When I get home on Friday I'll take a closer look and post a few pics.

They're not canted, rather the rockers are due to the wider valve spacing vs the stock head spacing.

I agree as well. The flange for the lower bolts is scalloped with TW heads. I don't know if others have the same but I do know that 170cc heads look like that.

I don't see how you can tell from the angle of those pics. They look like anyones aftermarket heads to me.

look at the intake valve position, no other head but TW or TWr has the rotated intake valve, TFS holds the patent on that design and nobody else can make a head like that, AFR tried to and failed.

Still really hard to tell with those pics.

Press the control button and it will allow you to roll the mouse button and zoom in or out on the screen. Zooming in on the small pic gets grainy, but you can tell the rocker adjusters are not inline. I don't know of any other heads with windsor valve covers like that.

Mine's obsolete. Doesn't do tricks like that.
