Hi David,

If I was building a bigger engine (someday?) I'd use those heads

Here's Kaase's take on the development:

Note that the cam profile has considerable influence, and watch out for piston to valve clearance!

As an afterthought, killing a bit of low end might be a good thing

Regards,

Tom

PS: Dunno anything about the Edelbrocks, but if you're looking around, the 385 bunch seems to like the TFS heads, too. Here's another URL:
