So Edelbrock confirmed today that production begins in March. I have been told "confirmed" before, but they really, really mean it this time.

Anybody have an inside or more info?

Got a little update on these heads. It is from the latest ERN's, but someone would need to confirm.

They are .500 raised exhaust port, W5 pattern. The .750 raised intake is correct on the web site. The intake runner volume is 215 cc, not 225 cc. Intake and exhaust ports will be fully CNC'd. They do have the W5 center water port that can be plugged or plumbed and will use LA intake bolt pattern. Valve train is stock, but does require .150 offset rocker.

I wonder if they will have a machined rocker stand version so you can use the T@D paired rocker system, these sound like a good replacement for my Lg port commando heads.


Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

I asked my buddy who works there, said they are the production schedule for April 3rd, so hopefully it doesn't get postponed.

That's the same thing I thought with my W5's.....





....in 2012!

I gave up, bought an R3, some W8's and started spending. In my mind there was NO WAY I'd have my car up and running before these heads finally came out. Boy was I wrong!

Oh and I'm happy to report the Edelbrock traveling road show was at March Meet and they no longer have a display head, or even a spot for it like they had at MaTS last year.

You speak with straight tongue , Kemosabe.
I'll be giving an update on bang for the buck soon , but the W-9 deal ran significantly higher than most of the small block heads out there......in virtually every aspect.
From the cam up , the only thing that isn't unique to it is that carb.

It appears Edelbrock might get some Jeep 4.0 inline six heads out the door before these victor heads happens..
If Edelbrock just tried casting the victor heads in aluminum just like those Jeep heads instead of unobtainium they might just have a good moneymaker
fan

Or is it just that we are not talking about the correct year?
