New Cylinder Heads arrived!

Edelbrock RPM 440's for my 383 were delivered today and it felt like Christmas, all over. Only took 4 days from Mancini's. I also got the Pro Magnum roller rockers.

Anyone care to hazzard a guess as to how much time it'll shave off my ET ? MPH increase ? I'm going from stock 906's and steel stamped rockers. The best ET I had last season was 12.024 @ 112.4

Hummm. So far the guesstimates are between 11.43 and 11.78. I'm thinking 11.50 to 11.55 That would still be quite a leap.

Out of the box, they look pretty good, just gonna clean up some minor casting flash in the ports. Yeah, Mike, some tuning work will definitely be in order when I finally make it to the track.

For now, just hoping for a break in the weather.
