Have a Weiand Action Plus and love it. Gobs of low end torque for a street engine. I have had great experiences with Weiand.
From what I've seen Wiand and Offy have the better castings. Much less core shift than Edelbrock or the old Holley intakes.

While they may have some issues, I can't help but to think they're a far cry better than any heads that came out of the factory in the 60s-70s.
I think those Indy x heads are a good buy
Mine work well, OMG...... OOTB! *gasp*

I tell my customers this time and again. You will have $2000 into a set of plain old RPM heads to make them a GOOD usable part.
Some of the other things not mentioned are the bad valve job, horrible core shift, tight guides, cheap springs, cheap valve seals and I have seen my fair share of metal shavings in them.
They do perform well, but it takes some doing!
IMO the RPM air gaps are over priced as well. Have had 2 of them with horrible core shift. One of them the divider on the duel plane was so far off center that a holley 650 butterflies hit it. Would only open 1/4 throttle. And the ports are so far off from a gasket that it is a joke. The Chinese versions are a lot closer OOTB and that is sad for an item that is almost 1/2 the $
for people who know a little but aren't mechanics like myself
