I am almost ready to put mine in the car. I would suggest getting the bare heads and putting good springs and valves with them. I replaced the springs on mine with Crane Cams Conical ones. The GT-40p heads from Frod Racing comes with standard production springs and locks with rotators. They are limited in lift to about 0.500".

I was just looking for the most affordable head and roller rocker combo I could get cause my money is tight.
