EQ Iron Ram vs Edelbrock Performer

It's 505$ difference minus whatever Hughes charges for shipping.

There are more advantages to aluminum heads beyond weight.

They are repairable, allow higher compression ratio, easier to port, often come with variable CC chamber offerings, improved design, plug angle, etc.

As said by many here including reputable builders, unless you have a useable set or your race class/body requires the use of iron, go aluminum.
