Anybody got a source for heads? With the shortblock supposed to ship this weekend finally, I really need to get on locating some. I was originally going with worked stock heads, but due to a miscommunication that isn't going to happen on schedule, and I've since decided to invest a bit more in the heads anyway. I heard rumors that AFR's were major backordered (3 months?), but might be willing to wait if necessary. It's for a S-trim'd 383 and I'm open to all suggestions. Hoping somebody knows of some in stock. Thanks!

AFR almost always has a wait time. I think I waited 6 weeks for mine. :(
best bet would be to hit the FS section and find some ported stockers or something.

Contact Jeff Stevens, 10secz. He had some killer stock castings that got his S-Trim car into the 9's that are for sale on his website. Dunno if they're still available, but I've always admired them. :)

I can tell you for sure that the head porting maniac at www.cylinderheadspecialties.com does excellent work and his heads flow as good as any I've seen. He only had mine 1 week and they were done, larger valves, and beautifully ported with an excellent valve job. I highly reccomend him.
