Really I got to put all those clearance questions back on you... I've never even seen the trick flow heads (I should have)..
I have a set of Speedmaster heads as we all know and the only thing I know (fact) about them is they are aluminum... And until you have your heads taken apart and measured unless you already have? That's what you know about yours (factually speaking)...
and Everybody's Talkin like buy the trick flow heads and slide them out of the box right onto your block.. they're comparing that price to having speedmasters serviced and gone through..
Go ahead and run down your price comparison for me real quick please..
Speedmaster fully loaded CNC heads can by had sent to the door for $1271...
(This is where I would like to interject 70aarcuda timeslips...)

Dam man,you are exhausting lol,I don't know anybody that bolts on heads without checking them,the difference is having them pass inspection and having top notch parts. There are two ends to specs,as an example there are some valve guides with crappy material and or installation process that measure good in places and some that measure good all the way through so it all boils down to what level of quality the person is comfortable with.

There are alot of rpm heads bolted on ootb everyday and run fine and yet everyone I have ever had my hands on had tight guides and most had poor valve jobs.What I and others are saying is to get the overall quality of a trickflow head its more money,the quality of every part/workmanship is better on the trickflows from the casting to guides to springs etc.

A cheaper hyundai runs as does a more expensive honda does that mean they are of the same quality of parts,workmanship and longevity?,run your heads and be happy with them but they are not the same as trickflows and ITS OK.
