Re: Got Me some Camel Humps!!
FWIW,the humps were great heads back in the day & if you're trying be period correct,that's 1 thing,but,if you are looking for performance & efficiency,that's a whole different thing.
A set of L31 Vortec heads,or,any of the similar fastburn heads will be an instant 30 HP over any of the humps.You can make more power with less cam & have much better resistance against detonation.
Unless they have had hardened seats installed,a performance type cam & springs can beat the soft seats out of the head in no time flat.
By the time you have seats installed,install screw in studs & a valve job,you will have a lot of money tied up in a set 50 something year old heads that will be less powerful & efficient.
