Quote: Used stock hemi heads are only cheap if they are cracked and/or over ported junk ...
Exactly. That's the reason I bought new stuff when I built my 426 Hemi a few years back.
I looked at the stage V stuff and with all the silly mods to a 440 block and the extra expense of headers and pistons I just built the real deal and got it over with.
I'm thinking off the top of my head that I came in right around the price of the conversion but with a better block and cleaner swap.
