Took the plunge on a set of ProComp Heads

From Bernard Mondello- he is installing heavier springs for me as well as a fuel pump and the machining for clearance. Getting closer to being back on the road!

I bought the 999 ones but am spending extra on stiffer springs for a roller set up, a fuel pump and the machine work for fuel pump clearance. Locally I will have them milled. When all is said and done should be right about 1600.

hey this is very true i talked to a few people about this and if you are not getting porting work or have not ordered exactly yet. the edelbrocks are a hair shy of street strip ported or aggresive street ported with good springs around 1500 new or maybe a little more. joe mondello helped production and built this in from the ground up.
