Default Re: Cheap heads or "Cheap Heads"??

I found this company in the back of 5.0 magazine. He's runnin an ad with the Pro Topline logo. I assumed he was Pro Topline, but maybe he just carries them. Well I guess when something is too good to be true, it is.

Here's the scoop. I got a 351W block free! Crank,rods, pistons, everything. It's still together. I was trying to build a junkyard 351 with 400+horses for under $1,500. The only thing I'm doing to the short block is stabbing a cheap cam in it. If the heads are there, it'll make the power with swap meet parts. 200cc heads assembled for $800 seemed like a good risk. This is not a prize motor going into a killer street car. It's gonna be an expendable drag strip motor going into a 4spd, 5:13 spooled 65 falcon. If I could get the heads for around $900 or under, that'll leave me $600 to get used parts. I guess we'll see. I've got a bid on some World Seniors on Ebay ending in 3 days.
