i am looking at heads for my 351m motor for my 88 notch. i know people have their opinions about these motors but i really dont care lol. i could go with stock 2v closed chamber australian heads or i could go with aftermarket brand new aluminum 2v closed chamber heads. which are about 3 times the price of the stock heads but they are so shiny

aussie heads. The money you save you can spend on buying a 400 crank and some 0-deck pistons from TMI to make a little bit of power...youre going to wish you never bought any of it once you get it in there to spend on therapy because for the exact same amount of work you could have had a 460.
