I don't know what they look like now? Maybe they can supply then with longer valves for 2.00" install height springs, and add some material to the rocker stands. Even better, get rid of the stock rocker stand configuration and goto a steel plate for paired rockers.

I wasn't aware of porosity issues, but there are some things I would like Edelbrock to do differently...

Ditto...My Victor intake manifold I just received looks like it was sand cast in a turtle sandbox by a 5 yr old. Hopefully their heads are gone through a little better during QA.
