Why am I drawn to the aluminum??

What a set of rhs flow ootb since there are none really doesn't matter since the op CLEARLY states he planned on buying IMM RHS heads. Making a comparison of the ede's to the imm is ABSOLUTELY valid as an OOTB comparison because the imm head does not come bare.

Running a hyd roller, you'll be upgrading springs or adding an inner. The parts that come on the ede's are not the same as the imm parts. You sure won't have spring interference issues if going roller rockers when using IMM rhs heads.

Slower cars overcome more weight easier, require less hp, than faster ones.

Some people don't like the chunk of aluminum look that the ede's have. I'm putting 24's on my car cause I like bling.. :pukel: If you want that look, have at it.

I have 3 sets of ede heads. I'd have NONE if the RHS heads had been out when I bought them. The ONLY way I buy ede's is if I get a great deal on a set and then have them worked over to my liking so I don't have more in them than a set of RHS $.

Even with a good VJ, the ede's in stock port form WILL NOT make equal power on the same engine as a set of IMM rhs heads. Try it on a 425hp 360... :)

Here's one of my engine and I think it looks like dogcrap with ede heads.
