Vortec heads for 100 bucks??? Whats up with that ??

1Fast C10,
You have had good luck with them........
Glad to see it indeed.

My experience falls mostly with full-tilt racing engines.
The cost-is-no-object type. IE: Nascar and Porsche V8s

I build my engines (myself) to turn 6000rpm ALL DAY.

That said.
I have had two sets of Chevy's lightweight castings (one Vortec=one "smog" crap) fail due to cracks between the valves.

The heads could not take it.
The "heavy" ones can.

I know everyone out there cannot afford the ARAO Engineering 32 v heads or the like and some of you (?) want to get the most miles you can out of a engine before you open the old wallet.

Hence the post.
