With Every Purchase Of Procomp Heads You Get A Free Can Of Cheese Whiz along with a free Ham Sammich '

I am using the pro-comp heads and I had to have the guides honed, Valve job re-done, and the dart adjustable guide plates to correct the geometry issues...... I also had to remove a crap load of metal to port match the heads to my rectangle port intake...... I had the aluminum chips flying for a couple days getting it right! I also did a good pocket port and cleanup of all the ports while I had my porting tools out...... I think they flow pretty well and certainly better than stock iron heads....... But I don't think its worth it to spend the time and money to get them up to speed and my next set of heads will probably be AFR's... But they did push my 502'powered 26 ZX to 70 MPH in 95 degree heat running a little rich.... I would never throw any boost at these heads but a decent normal aspirated engine should be fine with them once properly setup. I know there is alot of bad stories out there concerning these heads but my experience has been pretty positive so far.

All that money and you reused the springs? You get that tip from 315duramax?

heads only had 2 hours on them before being redone, pressures were well within spec...I am not an idiot and Gellner isnt either..... springs will most likely get changed with bigger cams anyway, not concerned

I have wjat I have for now, I dont have 30,000.00 in bank to just blow on engines with unlimited builds like some guys, sometimes things are what they are... sucks to be a blue collar ass buster, I pay cash as I go for what I can do, been doing it for years, I dont go into debt boating.

the heads are not "out of box" anymore at all.

if I would have built the engines from the beginning I would have used AFR or Dart heads, these heads came on the engines, if I would have known I was gonna spend so much making them right from the beginning I would not have spent it on them and bought new, I told GELLNER to mkae them right, he did, gave me a bill, was expensive but at that point what am I to do? say ok pay the bill then go spend 5000.000 buying another set because guys on OSO say they suck, yes they suck but now they don't....

Its easy to sit here and say "just buy new" to some of these guys, but it's not that easy for some to throw money in the garbage can, the heads will be fine, if not, so be it... life goes on.

You obviously know how I feel, once you got them oh well...right?

Most of us don't. You gotta draw the line somewhere and top-end parts are probably a good place to do it.

I do the best I can, like I said, after spending lots on the heads I cant just ****can them and start over...the cams I will be running I can almost gaurantee needs new springs, Tom said if I keep cams I had the springs were fine, go over .600 then new, so I was not concerned about springs with low hours...

The point is, if anyone says they'll be fine, and you have a problem with it, they sink in a ship they really had no part of.

It's the way it goes.

Suks sinking in your own ship, let a lone, some dude from the internet's ship you had no $$$ part of.

Thus the answers.

And yah, it's always easier when someone else's $$$$. LOL.

I get it, totally... just spent the money and keeping what I spent it on for now, no choice... I gotta draw a line or I wont go boating, might have a fail, might not... good parts fail too.... chit happens...
