I saw an ad for the above linked company in the May '05 issue of 5.0 Mustangs And Super Fords. Does anyone have any information on these heads other then what is given on the website? They look pretty decent, huge intake valve, I'd like to see a flow chart if anyone has one, I'm emailing the address given on the site asking for one so if I do find one I'll post it on here too. But $780/set that is dirt cheap. The ad in the mag says something about "Aluminum Racing Heads $550/set" that must be those heads but bare idk

Why don't you just call the owner up? He's a really nice guy. His name is Jim Daly. He can tell you all sorts of good stuff about heads.

I started to buy the Tri-pro's, but he convinced me that they were too much head for a mild 300+hp stree motor that I was after. Those baby's way out flow the AFR 185's and have no provisions for any pollution control hook ups. I tend to think that they are geared more for racing applications. Yhey might be for you depending what your goals are for your motor.

I just ordered some of the custom GT-40P heads from them. The new castings with the stouter springs and the oversize valves, 5 angle valve job, etc...

If you don't mind me asking, how much did these heads run you? I've always thought about going for the cheaper GT-40 route, but I know they will most likely need work, and I don't want to put a bunch of money into iron heads if I could just spend the money on a nice set of aluminums.

200cc runners would be too big for a 302 if thats what you have, im considering them for my 347 but still might go in the 185 range so i can keep the powerband lower in the rpm.
