That's been thrashed out a bit on the FE forum.
From memory, and there are better people to advise, but Barry's heads will also fit a 390 FE, not sure the valve spacing on the BBM will.
In summary they are both good examples, if I was planing a build, I'd consider either equally good. The flow numbers and commentary surrounding them "suggested" that Barry's heads would make for the better street head, and were a little more versatile.
The bbm would make a good all out race head (not suggesting it would perform badly on the street), but then if you were that way inclined you'd look at the BT also.
Either way, I don't think you can go far wrong with either.
Also fwiw, I don't have a dog in this fight. I have a set of Robert Pond heads.
Ps. Thanks for sharing Brent!
