I'm right. It's not so much the "law" as how the guidelines are typically interpreted. Punk.

I think you need to quit crying about your high compression, sell those heads, buy some AFRs and drop the CR down to 9:1, and install a CARB legal Procharger.

Then you will own this forum, in more ways than one.

I've thought about it . . . It's just money. I've got some but it goes to business first, Snake 2nd, the Vette about last and there isn't enough to stretch that far now. I've also thought about selling the Vette and just focus on biz for a while and come back to hobby stuff later. The market is crap though and wouldn't bring much of a price. Fortunately I'm not desperate so I don't have to move anything. Decisions decisions.

I'm not a fan of that publication as I don't trust their testing.

See above, I also don't trust AFR and their big claims. All I hear from them is "imagine this" and "what if" that...... no hard evidence unless they control the pre determined outcome.

Look at Profiler heads, at least they were developed by a professional.

OR Dart heads. I spent a few days with the CEO of Dart not too long ago, he took me on a personal tour of all their factories and such. I think they are a great product.

Additionally, I am involved with running probably the biggest head test ever done, and the most fair, and I know the demands made by companies. Let's just say Dart and Profiler gave heads unconditionally. Others had all kinds of stipulations......

Here in the People's Republic everything visible that's aftermarket has at have an E.O. No. (CARB cert.) I don't know if any of those heads are, though I think AFRs are. Heck, I'm running ported and milled truck heads that I had stamped with the correct casting numbers just in case any ref/smogger go nosey.

A quick look indicates Profiler and Dart are not CARB legal, TrickFlow and AFR are.

I've heard only good things about Trick Flow. The AFRs that came out after mine did have some valve issues, but that was for a 1st gen SBC. I have no idea about their LS stuff.
