For the minimal performance difference you might want to spend the $$ elsewhere on your car that may need/provide more benefit. Just a thought. ( how 'bout that cam you've been pondering or maybe put it towards a converter or different gears or.....?)

Now That's a drag racer! I think I just felt something move....

:thumbrig: Thanks for the tips Ian. I ordered a stud kit last night as a matter of fact. Say hey to my Uncle Ian if ya happen to see'em!

Ripper Job Ian! My Uncle and Cousins live outside Sydney. I'm here in Va. just outside Wash, DC. As a matter of fact, my nephew is named Ian after my Aussie Uncle! Enough small talk, what kind of bottom end parts and oiling tricks do you have going on there? How many RPM's are you twisting it...

I think it's going to depend on the carb tune and the traction. If the carb is tune real good (remember, you're feeding alot more cubes now so your probably gonna have to change something)and the car hooks up real well ( you should have a bunch more torque)you should pick up quite a bit. How...

7.50's..Better cam now for those heads.Have you thoght about a taller tire? Bigger headers?

Way to go Robzilla!

The opinions offered up here are all good and very constructive. However, many of them seem to mention the cost associated with the W2 versus the Eddy RPM. I 'm merely pointing out that from the beginning, money was not part of the eqution. Simply opinions on which head might be a better choice...

Did I miss something here? Pettyblu made no mention of $$. I happen to own a set of Eddy RPM's, but the W2 IS a Racing head and Does outperform the Eddy. The notion that it doesn't make enough extra power to haul itself down the track due to its extra weight is silly.

You could start out with Kate Jackson and fix her up ( lil' cosmetic surgery, enhance this, enhance that..) or just go straight to Farrah Fawcett ( the W-2 ! ) As far as ancilliary costs, you need an intake, some headers, valves, rocker arms regardless. Steve Dulcich put it this way: " Why...

The W-2 head solved the pushrod pinch problem that limits the potential of the standard LA head including the Eddy by relocating them and thus allowing for bigger, better flowing ports. Why spend big bucks modifying heads to get to flow #'s the W-2's already have, just start with W-2's ...

Mm, uhh, 7.82 Yep, that's what yer gonna run. Reminds me of Pass Time! Good Luck!
