If you don't want to pay the price or do the digging then race a new Copo! Or a Cavalier!

or you could always run a Mopar because there are aluminum heads for EVERYTHING over there!
Yeah, that 318/2V stuff is real hard to find.

Personally I wouldn't have a problem with aftermarket heads as long as a HP increase goes with them. I'm sure a lot of stock racers would be happy to have a new set of heads with nice virgin bolt holes and haven't been milled to hell. Just add the extra required weight and go race

You guys don’t know how good you have it! Try racing an Oldsmobile…a small block Oldsmobile! Try finding correct number vintage heads, block, intake for one of those. Heads changed every year and the external casting codes are an inch tall! Not easy to sneak any hokey numbers there!

I personally have a "dog in this fight" and for what it's worth, aluminum cylinder heads do not belong in Stock Eliminator, unless they were TRULY OEM on the car in question. Just the last couple of years my son and I have been running a 396/325 Camaro and stock heads are not that hard to find. Sure, it would be easier on our backs, but it would be a helluva lot harder on our wallets in the long run.

There's a real easy "fix" for that! Build a new Camaro/Mustang/Challenger and you get "nice virgin bolt holes" AND aluminum heads!
