Found another use for stock heads, besides doorstops, lol. Was in a pinch and needed something to set up the spool on my press back when I was changing the gears in the cuda.
Might keep a pair around if I need to do this again, lol.

Go out in my shop right now and look in the driver seat of my black Duster. I’m doing some chassis work so I threw a blanket on my seat and piled 2 W2 heads, 4 Edelbrock heads, and on the floor have two five gallon cans (8 gallons) of kerosene in the to simulate my weight. And it still wasn’t enough. lol.

Done right those can get a 3000 # car in the 9s. So spend money on fiberglass and lexan and keep the iron heads
