3400 heads

[IsaacHayes]

Stock 3500 heads would be a lot better bang for the buck... But you'll need 3500 LIM at the least to go with it.

I'm not sure just what you are trying to accomplish, other than looking a little foolish.

Ported heads on a stock bottom end is a waste of money you obviously aren't willing to spend in the first place.

A set of 3500 heads will do the job, of which I just happen to have a set, with brand new Comp 26986 valve springs, which on their own are the better part of $200.

This stuff doesn't come cheap.

As Brendan suggested, it costs money to make power, and people don't just happen to have ported heads sitting around that they will dispense with on the cheap.

im not looking to spend anywhere near $800 for around 10hp thats atrocious,
and damon did message me but they are not ported an polished,

He has 2 sets, i know for a fact that the one set is ported because i ported them.

i sent him a message today, i'm sure he'll respond soon...

Bszopi you can seriously justify $800 for 10hp? Im not putting down WOT because i know they help the L-Body community (which i am a part of) out alot, im just not willing to pay that much for so little... And im not a nubb i have worked in a machine shop and my dad has been a machinest for 20 years, i know all about how everything machinests do is overpriced, but they can do that because the average joe dosent have the cash to get the tools to do it properly... If i want to spend that kinda cash ill get a set of WOT headers which i have been told to put out 20+ hp for around $600

And stop being a cheap ass geldartb? how about you stop being an asshat looking for attention because you FAIL at reading and because i did not want your UNPORTED AND UNPOLISHED heads off of you, And your right i never told you how much i wanted to spend, which is why it also makes you look stupid when you say i want them next to nothing, So again i DO NOT WANT YOUR UNPORTED/UNPOLISHED HEADS!
Next time read a little closer so you do not waste my time... And that reminds me how you wanted $50 for USED LIM gaskets when you can buy an entire NEW LIM gasket set for $50 and claimed i was a cheapass than too

Since mostly everyone offered me everything i didnt need and than got angry when i didnt want them, than chances are i will get a bare set and do it all myself and save $400+

Yeah Isaac i thought of that after i already purchased a new 3400 LIM and ported + polished it to the 3500 UIM gaskets, and painted it haha, so im just going to stick with the 3400 stuff

And yeah thanx Superdave if he contacts me again i will let you know, thanx again!

GOOD DAY EVERYONE!

[slinky]

You aren't looking at the whole picture. Ok, maybe by themselves, they only provide a 10hp gain (not sure where you got that from), but combined with other parts, you will see a bigger gain from the heads. Also, take all the parts that are included in a set of heads (the parts you are asking for), then a set of bare heads, then the standard machine work, and see what that adds up to. Subtract that from the price, and see how much is left over for the labor or the port and polishing.

10hp?

If you dont want new valves, new seats/seals, new springs, milling, or a valve job, we can talk price. Those parts aren't free.
