Brodix B1BA heads...
Have asked about these heads in the past....well...things are slowly getting more turned upside down in my world so...
One of the things that was mentioned in my previous questions was these heads require custom headers. Well...lets just assume that one way or the other I am going to need custom headers so remove that from the equation.
I am well aware that these may not be the best choice but considering that I already own them...and don't have bottomless pits for pockets...seriously considering using them.
Thinking that it may be time to give up on my motorcycle plans and just finish my Dart...
Before you ask...I don't have a set ET/MPH I want to run. What I can tell you is that the car is going to be a street car that sees some track time. I just want the car to be a running, drive-able car before I end up in a box on a shelf somewhere.
Car will have a 4l80E in it...that is what it is set up for so that is what will end up under it. Car will also have EFI. Probably a Holley Terminator X system.
The heads I have are not drilled for an alternator mount. Did read somewhere that the heads can be drilled so that is not a problem.
Anyone use these heads, on a street/strip car out of the box? If so, how did they work. According to the Brodix site:
"If using a standard 340 or 360 block, standard adjustable Chrysler rocker arms may be used with special B1 stands."
I have not done that much digging but I have yet to see these "special B1 stands" any place. Anyone know anything about them?
Funds permitting I would probably buy a set of Trick Flow...or E-brock heads...but are they going to be worth the $$ I will have to put out?
Please...spare me the "you are going to be spending a ton of $$ on the EFI" so why not just get the Trick Flow/E-brock heads" type of comments.
