Edelbrock 440 heads, they any good?

Thats a joke I know there good but are they worth the money or is it cost effective to use stock iron heads with machine work...

Ebrock heads flow better than stock iron heads and by the time you get done fixing the stock iron you will be close in price to Ebrocks .

One thing id also watch for is a set of good already ported/polished/valve jobs and all that stuff iron heads someone may have taken off to move up to the Edelbrocks or Indys or something else...back when the Eddies first came out they were still WAY up in price guys thought they would get what they had in them back out of them ...you know the...I paid for $1000 of work I wont take a dime less than that for them...at that time guys just passed on them and got the Eddies instead for a couple hundred more or the same price...now guys know that they are not gonna get that and in the past few months ive seen some great deals on what WOULD have been some RATHER EXPENSIVE Iron heads of a LOT less. Just something to keep your eyes open for.

Well were going for Edelbrocks nothing used though , this time brand spanky new less surprises and aggravation with new. What about rocker arms and shaft, do we run stock or is there something else that's needed?

In the race parts section there is a new set of Eddys in the box at a good price! As far as rockers and shafts,do you have an aftermarket cam?

I have a 509 cam but not sure if thats the cam I will run, trying to build a 12 sec engine in a full body 4 speed Challenger with a 4:10 Dana

Use the stock rockers and shafts. Save a few $ and spend on the Comp XE275HL cam. Better power and street manners than the .509.
