For those who ask why it costs what it costs:


You have to understand that if you're buying a set of top of the line heads, part of what you're paying for is the experience and knowledge of the guy doing them. For example, I pay Jimmy and Chris at Bridges Performance for Jimmy's 50+ years of experience plus the years of experience Chris brings to the equation. Not to mention the fact that there's well over 40 hours of work in a set of Stock heads if you start with a pair of bare old used castings. So yeah, you're going to pay $5K or more for a set of heads.

The same thing applies to engine builders. You pay guys such as Darrell Wikle, Jeff Taylor, Brian Tilburg, Bobby Warren, Gary McGlasson, and Steve Ficacci as much for what they know as you pay them for what they do.
