Here we go again

@PRH its been forever since I’ve had a set of out of the box “complete” finished Edelbrock heads. Looking at these pictures do you see anything that would be finished a little nicer than these heads. Are they this bad because he bought them bare.

The “bare” heads come unfinished.
That means unfinished guides, seats, bowls.

It is not really the same thing as an “assembled” head with the parts taken out.

The first thing I do with the bare heads is fit the guides and cut the seats.
