looking for some good non vortec heads... my current ones need a valvejob and i dont really wanna lay down the 500 the machine shop wants for it.... so im looking for any good heads people have out there. this engine is soon to be performance oriented so if these are good heads for this this would be a plus!

Not to get in the way of a sale by a board member but there are some great prices on ebay for non-vortec heads that have been rebuilt.

My local machine shop put new valves,springs,guides,seals,and even surfaced sb heads for $175 a pair. You said $500!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can buy new heads for that from GM.

The best deal I saw on ebay was about $175 for a pair of reman 1.94/1.5's but then you will have to pay for shipping! I would check locally. I have seen ads in the local Seattle Little Nickle for $150 for a set of reman 350 heads. I don't know what kind they are or how complete. Shop around.

I can hook you up with My Engine Builder Price depends on what all is needed But worst case i think its like 200 with new Z/28 springs guides and a surface You may not need guides and surface therfore it may be cheaper PM me if you want his number.
