...............Weight, 40 pounds... REALLY? This is the ONLY place the OOTB ede has an advantage for the OP's engine. How much HP does it take to overcome 40#? ......
If the 40 lbs was on the rear of the car, it would not be a big deal, just add power...but 40 lbs off the nose IS a big deal.
What about higher compression ratio tolerance of an aluminum head? If the price is comparable why wouldn't you go with aluminum?
