Are there any stock aluminum heads for 302-351W that can be easily found in the salvage yards? I have a stock 96 351 out of a truck that I was going to use in my 69 fastback. I was thinking aluminum to help lighten up the front a little, not so much for the power. I guess I am trying to lighten the car up and balance the car more. I will also move the battery to the trunk. I will probably be running the car on the local road America track (elk hart lake) a couple of times a year, besides daily driving like my 70 challenger. Is there any other good places to lose weight in the car. The more weight I lose the less power I need to make and if I would lose enough I would consider putting in one of my 302 instead of the 351 just for better fuel economy and possibly supercharge it. Either way I will have to build up the T-5.

 

IIRC - there were no large scale production aluminum heads - just aftermarket.

 

What are the gt40 heads made out of its a small block its already light enough

 

all stock SBF heads were cast iron, and the GT40 / GT40P's are the best stock heads you can get for a 289/302/351w out of a junk yard
