Default 429/460 ProComp heads???

What Is your opinions of the 429/460 Procomp heads I see on Ebay?
How do they compare to the John Kaase heads? They are nearly 1/2 the price! I was planning on buying the Kaase heads and I ran across these but cant find any info on them.....

They're not a bad head if prepped right. Out of the box, they're not much better than a stock iron head with minor exhaust porting. They will never approach the level of the Kaase head, but with enough work they will compare to other street level heads....at a slightly lower cost.

Default Thanks

I ended up buying a set of Kaase heads on ebay that a machine shop had ordered and proted for someone and they never picked them up. Scored them with a set of roller rockers for the price of bare Kaase heads! WHAT A DEAL!!!
