As MUCH head, as you can afford!
You got that chit right! I've done an aluminum intake swap on a 390. I used the engine hoist to lift the iron intake off the engine.
The Challenger I spoke of runs 9.60 in 6000'da. The car is back halved with a full interior. The car is especially fun to watch next to a nasty small block pulling the tires and bouncing all around on its way to getting smoked at the top end!
Yeah. It's kind of a shame that I bought a pair of aluminum bbc heads that flow 350cfm for $800, and 350cfm bb mopar heads cost $3000. And they would be bare minimum for a 540 mopar.
There was a rank BBM with Chevrolet style exhaust ports that showed up last year. Indy Heads?
No offense. Probably a big block chevy in a mopar.
You ain't lyin. You caint do the cubic inches or the power to match this for the same price in a big Mopar. PLUS it has a 30 month, 50,000 mile warranty. It's a sad reality.

I wanted to buy one of those for my Opel when they were still under 13k, but it simply won't fit. I can't use a tall deck or raised exhaust heads without throwing away a $2000 set of custom headers. (Too close to the rollcage down bars, and the floor of the car).You ain't lyin. You caint do the cubic inches or the power to match this for the same price in a big Mopar.

"Settling" for a 540 somehow don't sound like settling. LOL
tough times...
Well, blueprint makes a standard deck 598...... but I don't have enough cylinder head for one of those, lol.
And they say it because there's not enough sales of mopar stuff, which of course is PURE BS. If they sold them at a comparable price they'd have many many more sales due to the price alone
Yup. They'd win out with quantity of sales if the prices were more fair across the board. Guys who wouldn't normally be able to afford parts would be buying them.
I remember when TRW Forged Chevy pistons were 49.99 a set.
I bought a set of forged 400 Chevy pistons for $100 (new!) and machined the dish off, and hung em on 5.7 rods. Zero deck 406 for $200. 11.5 to one with cheap aluminum heads.
That is the plan on the LTD I just got. Speedmaster 200 intake and a hoist to replace it. Or a 500 2 barrel.
Except the corporate rip-offs continue. & seems odd, that they must not read these forums to get sales ideas.
