440 Source Stealth heads for 440

Any body running these heads on there 440? If so Likes and dislikes? Thanks Scott

Have them on my 12.5 440.Its street driven.Been on it going on 4 years and no problems.I did change the springs retainers and keepers.I run a .588 solid cam and 4 speed.I would have had to change those parts on any head I bought.Rocky

I have a set here in the garage, same changed springs locks etc but also had to have a step on the back of some of the intake valve seats knocked down and had a little bowl work done as well.

I can take pics if you are on the verge of ordering them.

To do over I would have just bought indys or edelbrocks

I have bought a set.

They look nice but I noticed the machine work wasnt perfect. The valves seats where not machined perfectly level. If putting a straight edge on the tips of the valves you could see some missalignment.

I had a friend installed a set and they cracked, the had some problems with the castings not being stress relieved and they were a bit crack prone...but I think it was just a bad batch and they already have taken care of that....

Regardless I like the fact that they look stock from the outside...unlike the edelborcks.

I guess they are a good head for the right application. Just blueprint the machining...

Do a search on here, the topic has been covered to death.
Short answer, generally good for intended purpose as an inexpensive replacement head that looks stock.

I changed the springs,locks and reatiners,but I'm using a different cam and racing. I would buy another set with no problem.

I run a set of them straight out of the box. No problems.
