Some people say they don't flow anymore than a fully ported edelbrock, but in my experience, I gained a few tenths going from ported eddies, to the now called t/a head.

John,I guess we shouldn't referr to them as Indy-Brocks anymore and just as Edelbrock heads that can be purchased from Indy and many other sources since the"Indy Messiah" has spoken and we are only pawns sitting at a card table and subject to "the luck of the draw"I'am holding Aces and Eights [IMG]http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq21/ajcasini/max_zpsdppwd9km.jpg[/IMG]

I bet I spend 1 hour a week alone explaining to people that just because they bought edelbrock heads from us that they are anything other than just a standard edelbrock. So to avoid future confusion for people the T/A head should marketed better.

The pushrod is not in the port at all, we get the castings raw, so its easy for us to relocate the pushrod and remove all the unnecessary material from the intake ports. We also machine the rocker stands differently as to accept any standard set of big block rockers. Add the CNC porting and you get a small block head that will flow over 300 real easy and is reasonably priced
