I'm sure I could be wrong because I'm not that familiar with Trick Flow's stuff, but they look like a set of Twisted Wedge heads to me. How much did you have to give for them?

I think, but dont hold me to this, all newer TFS heads have Trick Flow stamped or w/e at both ends, but in the older ones it didnt, if yours dont, you either have the older, and i think better, TW heads, or you just got owned

Does all of Trick Flow heads have this cantered/offset valve train or do they make an inline head. It reminds me too much of those valve eating BBC that alot of guys run around here.

YOU NEED TO GET THOSE HEADS RESURFACED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

whoever cleaned them used a wire wheel/cookie cutter which means the surface looks like
^v^v^v^v^v instead of _________
and you can clearly see impressions from the firing ring on the headgasket. DO NOT INSTALL THESE UNTIL THEY ARE MILLED.

.................that is all

they are definitly a twisted wedge design... but I need to see the whole head, multiple angles


someone could have owned you with a set of E6 heads... try to find a casting number

anyway they arent E6, my combustion chamber is more heartshaped
