It is time to retire my cast 460 heads. I have an overheating problem, and coolant is disappearing. I haven't found any in the crankcase, so I think that I am just starting to develop a cracked gasket or head. As long as I am pulling the heads I would like to help the performance a little. I have an Edelbrock Torker manifold, matching cam and 9.3 to 1 compression. How would Performer heads work with this setup?

I have seen threads recommending Ford SVO, Blue Thunder, and Weiand Stealth heads, are these still available. Are they worth the added price. Have there been any new developments in 429/460 heads since 2000?

Thanks,
