Don't know but the flow #'s look identical to pro-topline, i couldn't find any pricing for them. do you have a price line on them and how does the prices compare to RHS pro-topline?

PS, if Ron Shaver has anything to do with them he is one of the best head men in the business.

I have dealt with Ron Shaver in the last couple yrs and he has a lot of respect from people like hilborn and Brodix.
In fact i have a set of Brodix/Shaver s/blk heads, that needed some repairs and i sent them Ron for the repairs.
I shipped them to Ron and after close inspection he decided that the repairs would cost more than replacement and sent the heads back to me with no charge for the inspection and even paid the shipping back to me, so i think he's good people.

hey Zip, he has some dang good prices and he is a great builder. i have a bunch of sb chevys that i cant seem to sell so ill build them one at a time and i hate stock gm heads that all together i had 25 pair of them from 283 305 307 350 400's and 11 pair went to the junk just to get rid of them. the ones i have are 151 runners 1.94/1.5 that ill probably not use. thats why i was looking for some good 180's and up for these engines and i dont want pro-topline. and only 3 will have dart or afr aluminum. I was looking for set for a alky build and Bjuice (Brian) gave me great advice on the setup for it but the guy with the alky setup backed out of the deal lastnight. so its back to a street build on that one. cant wait to get a set now 8)
