Well compared to a TFS or edelbrock, they are more oval.
Ummm - LOOK AT THE PICTURE. They're not oval... AT ALL.
Umm, it's a picture. I have had the heads in my hands, and what I think and you think is different, no problem.
Also, the 1262 gasket doesn't fit the edges very well.
I've had them, they fit fine. I didn't think they fit as well as the do on edelbrocks and TFS. Again, you look at it differently than I do.
Hey, I'm not doggin your heads,
I have Brodix and TFS heads on my motors, not AFR. I'm just disposing of misinformation here. Ok, fine, I am not trying to put out disinformation, so just calm down.
I will post up whether I was right or wrong as soon as I know. I know I was right as of 2 months ago.
I doubt it. There is no reason that a major cylinder head manufacturer would just decide to stop selling heads with an appropriate combustion chamber cc, then magically start again. Uhm, it's called a mistake. I just got a call from my shop, they said that they do indeed sell the 58's now. I am telling you, and I don't really care if you believe me or not, as I have no reason to make it up, that they told me on the phone I couldn't order a set of sbf heads for a customer in 58cc only in 71cc. I lost my mind, not to dissimilarly than you are here. I am glad they have fixed the problem. I will start offering them again to customers. I was really pissed that they did that to us after the huge buy in we had to do with them to sell their heads, then they do this to us.
I'm actually beginning to doubt a lot of what you say. Like this for example:
I run 9's with a stock cam.
Full pics, vids, and engine combination. Followed by the class you run in, and your name. Otherwise, I call BS.
Ok, video is hard to do, but it's been on the nmra highlights video. I have lots of pictures I could post just like the one in my avatar, but I posted a thread asking how the best way to post pictures is on this forum. Last time I checked there was no response. But to ease your conciense, the car is a 92 coupe, 308, boss block, TFS heads, TFS street heat intake, 70mm throttle body, stock cam, I beam ultralightweight rods, single nozzle nitrous kit, dry, with 60lb injectors, I ran in Real Street up till last year, when I left for Afghanistan, where I am currently. I had to leave my shop and all my toys behind, so I let Matt Johnson race the car for me and I send my shop foreman to crew for him. It's gone a 9.9 several times this year. We haven't gotten a clean pass in it yet this year, as traction issues have popped up and with me being all the way over here and not driving the car, it is very hard to diagnose what's going on. The picture in my avatar is me driving it last year at the BG event in KY the finals. I had the opposite problem, too much traction and had to let out of most of the passes.
The class is NMRA real street, car number 8084 last year, I think, and the year before that I took off, but would have been r/s 8, because I was 8th in the points. in 08 I finished 8th as well, read the rules, they are online, stock cam for us 5.0's the other guys can all run special grinds. we can run a replacement but it's not worth it. The stockers are cheaper and run just as good as the AFM"s and other out there.
