V-A-L-U-E.....you have to look at the bigger picture to grasp it and the fact real racers or anyone hooked on the horsepower bug always look for more....its just a matter of time. When you do, you will kick yourself in the azzz for leaving what you did (at the price you did) by not purchasing the better heads.

GUYS....AM I MAKING ANY SENSE??

My work here is done....Josh, bring us some good news will you!....LOL

Cheers,

Tony,

I don't believe Joe is knocking your heads in the least bit. I understand what he's saying 100%. It's like when I posted about how my setup when I'm done will be big tube runners and ported plenum, and I heard "switch to a miniram/superram". Well, I have a budget and know what I can spend. $400 for BTR setup or $1300 for SR. Would I gain more HP with a SR? Sure. Of course I would. Is it worth it to *me personally*? No. Same with the heads. I'd love some AFR 195s. But it's not gonna happen. I will have my budget rebuilt 113s for under $500. Makes a big difference to me at the end of the day. I'm just an average Joe, I drive my vette everyday around town. For the hardcore racer - sure get the best you can. For a regular guy, work within your means.
