What heads for my Monte

Having to upgrade the heads on my GM 350/290hp crate engine. The one from the factory smoked and when looked at it, the valve seals were coming apart. Nice.

 

This will never be a race car. Has a Comp Cams XE268 cam. Was considering the Edelbrock E Street cylinder heads ($909) at Summit. Also saw the Brodix for $190 more.

 

Leaning toward the Edelbrock. Opinions welcome. Ordering on soon so I have them for the weekend, or Spring Break next week.

Best bang for the buck are GM L31 heads. They used them on 350 "R" engines from 96 all the way up to 1 ton trucks in 2003. You heed self aligning rockers and a specialized Eddy intake for the app, but these things make POWA!!!

Vortecs, ok. After considering this I am going with the Edelbrock RPM, 64cc. I can use my intake. A local shop will sell them new for $485 each, hard to beat that. Beat Summit & Jegs price by $70, even after tax. Nice.
