No, you would better off with a set of GT40p's.
I'm not real crazy about those either.

They are better than e7's but gt40's get basicly the same performance, if not better.

whatever you can get cheaper. 351, 289 or gt40's. they all outperform the e6' and e7's. just know they have limits...

they are^^^they just have 1/2 holes for the head bolts........but to the OP if you came across a old set of c9oe or dooe heads all done up for a decent price it might be worth it, I got a set with larger valves, ported, screw in studs and o-ringed all for 300 beans a few years ago
