E-street vs Promaxx vs 440 Source

Ok, I just read through the thread in the link. Seems Ramm re-worked the valve job, port, and shrouding ??? I'm not paying 1450 bucks for a set of head, then having to pay a machine shop to do an adequate valve job, and such. If I'm paying 85% of a set of TF's, then I'll buy the TF's. If I buy any head, they will have to work OOTB. I can do some things at home with my dremel, but not a "new 5 angle valve job".

i don't think the ootb edelbrock valve job would be IN-adequate...just if someone were to prep a head really nice then there is the possibility of truing up the valve job and deshrouding.
also, the E-street heads were very recently only ~$1200.

so i guess one advantage with the edelbrock stuff is, look at autozone's website and see the 20% off code. I do see the 5090 head listed there. so order from autozone, or call jeg's and price match.
