See I figured they were splayed valve based on price but the ad did not say so.

13k for a complete motor isn't too bad then. Too much for me, but not unreasonable.

I believe Lump and Self Racing are one in the same. I raced against Kevin Self in Comp Eliminator and he went by the nickname Lump at the time.

LOL comments like that tend to set me back thousands of dollars and many months if not years!

I just called them out of curiosity and they said they have a few sets, some ready to go others not so much.

The guy I needed to talk to was busy working on an intake and since I wasn't going to be buying right now I didn't want to bother them so no real details.

Told them I would call back later in the week. Nice people though.

Isn't Nickens involved with Larry Morgan and Chrysler Pro Stock stuff?

Not that they can't handle a set of v6 heads, I guess.

How much do you think one can pick up a set of those heads?

The price ranges I have seen is quite large.

Also John, what do you guesstimate it would cost to make everything workable. My price would be a little less than normal I assume because of the lack of turbo?

I know. I have six sets of heads and about that many intakes. My plan is it get them matched up correctly add fuel rails and sell them as sets. I probably won't get this all accomplished in the near future. Until I spend some time with this and sort it all out I probably will not sell any intakes separate.

Ok, how much?

Also how much do you think to make everything work? A guesstimate would be great.
