Which heads to get?

Roger, but you need to look at the whole package price, and do the math not just look at the cost of the heads alone. The Autozone discounted Edelbrock heads are in the same price range +/- a few 10's of $ as the EQ Magnums so any valvetrain parts may tip the cost advantage one way or another.

And not to be negative, but it may well that Mopar Magnum is making better price margin on selling EQ Magnum over Edelbrocks; hard for me to say. It is certainly a no-brainer to go EQ Magnum for a Magnum engine owner.

mn9, make money selling parts, you are funny:D...to tell you the truth, if I can make $100 on a pair of heads then I am lucky. Typical sales time 3-4 hours working with customer before and after sale is typical. Pick up a few(literally) more bucks selling rockers and pushrods etc. After expense of 6000 sq ft shop and employees/taxes etc it works out to about $20/hr.

I dont do this for the cash because there " aint" none. If I wanted cash I would have gone into banking, finance or some other criminal enterprise . I do it because thats what broke *** old gearheads do.

I make money building and selling injected A bodies, there really isnt **** in parts sales thanks to skummit and jegs selling at my cost with free shipping andhen I beat them on EQ prices I only make $50 but at least its better than no sales. If I dont then everybody just buys from them to save $20. Walmart style.

I will sell you either, I will just feel better about selling you the EQ's. If not, then the only question is what are you going to do with $570 of Autozone Antifreeze from your gift card:D
