I have built and sold more of these heads than anyone. I can tell you anything you need to know about them as well as the best intake to run for the application. When you have done these engines for 25 years you find out what works and what does not as well as what to use in any situation. You can ask 10 people and get 10 different answers because most do not know. Not rocket science on any of this just a lot of dyno time and track time. If I can help just let me know, I can sell you the parts to do ecactly what you want and make the power that you want.
I do engines so I will not tell you what to do about the foundation of your house or how to do brain surgery because I have not done that work yet.

Thanks, Keith Craft

What he said is probably your best technical and practical source. I have a set of the Edelbrock's that were prepared by Keith. I'd buy them again.

I've previously owned original iron heads, another competitor's aluminum heads, and these Edelbrocks.

I bought a set for my 428 CJ many years ago (about1995)when they first became available. I sent them to Engine Systems in Atlanta for a valve job and to make sure they were good before I installed them. Last year after 40k miles I had the engine rebuilt and I had the heads CNC ported, all new titanium locators and keepers along with larger valves and new springs. They have 3500 miles on them and so far working great. BTW the engine made 585HP and 564 Torque. I have the Dove tunnel wedge with 2 ea 600 Holleys.

I have a friend that put a set of the 6006 on his 352 right ou of the box and after much grief he found the new heads had a couple of the valves stuck. This was in the last 3 months. The remedy was valve job with new guides.
