You might want to check out other heads, too...my favorite builder has some pretty good things to say about the Twisted Wedge brand, IIRC.

It seems like the 427 is too big a step up from the 351. I've heard some people complaining about it being too much for a stock block.
I've also heard about the TW 11R heads (I think that's the code). Do they flow as much as the AFRs?

Both of those cams are small base circle. I guess since they have the link bar lifters, I wouldn't need the dog bones, but the pushrods may not be the right length.
Looking at those kits, they have the cam, lifters, pushrods, timing chain, springs and retainers. Looks like a big price saving for the kit. Don't the heads come with springs and valves already installed. Will I need to switch out the stock springs on the heads?
Thanks! Tom
