edelbrock cylinder heads

With all the spirted bickering going on and before the heat gets turned on between parties, please be reminded that all that has been said over the last day is completely off base in term to what the OE poster put up.

Which is a very general thought.

So far, he has brought up the possible use of 2 very different engine and only mentions a very small amount of parts to be used, or so he thinks. (Thats what I gather, anywhoooo)

If you all start this battle between which head is better, both parties are up crap creek for *Thinking* they know the answer to a question put forth that is to vauge to truly answer.
The only answer worth considering is the "In general opinion" answer, much like what Moper gave. It's a very broad and in general opinion on how such heads could be used.

Conduct yourself nicely please. I know certain issues/threads topic are just great for banter and other bologna.

Rumble I think you hit it right on the head. The OP just wants to know which motor and what cylinder head to use. He is on a budget and wants the most bang for the buck, not looking to set low ET for the biggest motor in the world. I happen to have access to a Superflow flow bench and I was disappointed to see 220cfm at 600 lift for the Edelbrock. My home ported Js flow 270cfm on the same bench, unfortunately for me I had already spent a lot of money on the Eddies and sold them for a loss. I think a lot of combos posted here are very stout, however I think they are leaving a lot on the table by not using a better head. Edelbrock has come into a market that had very little options for a aluminum aftermarket head and hit a home run. Most guys want to grab a head off the shelf and put it on their car. Now there are some better options out there and the competition is fierce, but I am bummed that there is so much info out there steering some of the guys who are new to this in the wrong direction. I guess my thoughts are to the OP to consult a pro who is knowledgeable in small block mopars and trust them to steer you not some people on a forum who you dont know and the advice is all over the place. I do find it funny that some folks get REAL personal at the drop of a hat when you insult their favorite cylinder head. :happy10:
