Re: Help Me Pick Some Heads For Christmas Present

Let me ask a few follow up questions comparing the Summit Heads linked above (SUM-151124) vs. the ebay linked EngineQuest Heads: 1. Made in USA vs. New Zealand, quality concerns/differences to be aware of? 2. Performance between the two expected to be relatively equal? 3. Summit heads require some machining to accommodate guide plates, is it safe to assume that I don't need to machine or install guide plates if I am using self-aligning rockers? As far as the economics compare: Option 1: Summit Heads $700/pr Summit Manifold SUM-226018 $160 Self-aligning Rockers $70 Head Bolts $70 Valve covers ~$100 Misc Fel-pro gaskets $50 TOTAL= $1150 Option 2: EngineQuest Heads $740 Self-aligning Rockers $70 Misc Fel-pro gaskets $50 TOTAL= $860 Am I missing any questions or parts/machining costs? |
