Unless they are D0OE heads, I'd pass and look for a set of GT40s if you can't afford aluminum. You won't gain anything because the late 70s heads suck too

Those 351 heads are probably worst. Small valves and huge combustion chambers. Junk.

Yeah, I'd look for some GT40's. There not the best but you will notice a difference.

I would consider your stock heads, DOOE, GT-40, heads all garbage now.

You can get a set of LIGHTWEIGHT, ALUMINUM HEADS, that make better numbers, takes weight away, are easy to install and cost is cheap.
