They are big in the modular world. The just got into the pushrod business. My NX sales rep also reps them. I was offered a fairly decent buy in price, but I didn't think they were a big enough name to get into. I don't do much modular stuff.

always remember you get what you pay for.. AFR is the best thing you can do. Im in the process of getting afr's right now. every person I have asked says afr is hands down the best choice there is.

muscle mustangs and fast fords just used these heads not to long ago . along with steeda #18 cam 1.6 roller rockers, jlt cai, 70mm throttle body 73mm mass air and bbk long tubes and reached 302hp and put down 344ftlbs of torque not bad if you ask me for the amount of money spent

Ive got the heads but yet to put them on a engine. The heads are not the best in the world. If you get the heads i reccommend getting a bare set and doing the valve train yourself and portin on the heads a bit. The valvetrain on the assembled heads suck so im installing the comp cams valve train kit that comes with there cam. And i have a buddy who is working the heads over for me. I should still have less in these then a set of afrs and they should flow around the same.
