I spoke with the folks at Clearwater Cylinder heads about the EQ Monster Magnums they sell. As it turns out, it is the same EQ head casting, it is just put together with special retainers, locks, springs, and the correct machining to actually support a full .600" lift.
I ended up ordering a pair of the standard EQ heads with stainless 2.02" intakes and 1.625" exhaust valves and the correct springs to support my .515" lift camshaft. These heads are the version with the LA intake bolt pattern. They perform 5 angle valve jobs on the intake valve seat and 3 angle valve jobs on the exaust seat. The cost to my door was $400 per head with $30 shipping each. ($430 total ea)
Since these heads are now going to be bolted on a LA block, can I use the head bolts from my Magnum engine?
