Chris, sorry this DON'T answer your question, but have you considered Trick Flows??? They, as far as I can gather, are just as good as the AFR's or Edelbrocks. I've seen some posts about dart heads, but you will probably just have to do a search.------------------

Will...I did do a search, but nothing that was really informative as per flow rates, performance, reliablity came up.I picked up a TF catalog at the drag races a few weeks ago and Sam was checking them out too. One of the big reasons I asked is that we were adding up all the parts to build up the 289 in our Falcon this winter when I saw this site posted on M&M www.tandlengines.com. Saw a 347 stroker for not a "whole lot" more than a buildup and was wondering if it was worth just buying the stroker.
Anyhow they used the Dart heads, and Sam and I really didn't know too much about how they compared to the others in flow etc. ...Chris

I found this, don't know if it will help or not.http://www.dartheads.com/fordch.aspx Hope it does. I don't think it will, it's only the spec for the heads. Sorry, but I'll keep looking. ------------------
