I know this has been asked but please don't shoot me for asking again. Does anyone know where the best place is or the cheapest place to buy the Indy 440-1K Max Wedge Aluminum Kit? Does anyone know of a good used kit or just heads for sale?
Also is this the best bang for the buck or is there another set of heads out that can perform or out perform them for the money?
I have a 68 Dart with a 500ci with 11.5 to 1 with cast heads and looking to upgrade to better flow and maybe raise the comp to 12 to 12.5 to 1. I also have fenderwell headers but want to change them out do to they are rusted up and look like junk. What would be the best set of headers to run TTI or another set of fenderwell headers and what would be the best fenderwell headers to run?

You might be looking for something that'll give you a little more power, but have you thought about the Indy EZs? They're made for A-bodies and I believe that you can use regular headers (no raised exhaust ports). I have a set of the SRs and (just like the 440-1 heads, you have to use the TTI headers ($700) or go custom.

Will the Indy 440-1 heads work in the Dart with the TTI headers with out any cutting or mods? I wanted to replace the inner fender-wells with new replacements from A.M.D to make it look better in the engine compartment anyways. The owner before me cut the fender with a cutting torch and hacked them up bad I think the biggest thing I want to do is build this to be a 10. to 10.2 car on motor alone with no problem. It runs 10.70 now but thinking the cast heads are just killing it right now??? I just want to spend the money one time and be done Will the SRs heads flow good enough to get me to a 10. or better with no problems also on the right motor? If I don't have to spend a lot of money 3900.00 and have to get the 440-1 heads to do what I want then I can go with the SR's heads???

I think its the "SR"s that are made for a-bodies. The EZ's have stock exhaust port locations.
No, the EZs are made for easier header fitment, (A bodies), hence the stock exhaust port height.
SRs have a raised exhaust port.
