I have a set on mine. I gained a bit of power from them but I think that they flowing capacity of these heads is greater then the current camshaft that I am running (stupid R/T cam, waste of money) so I am going to be purchasing a larger cam (KRC 210X, 220 or Hughes) this spring in hopes of finding a bunch of horsepower. I got a good deal on my heads from the local dodge dealer, 10% above cost so it wasnt that bad, if you had to spend a lot I would say dont do it. I would also like to see a comparison of the 1.92 heads vs the 2.02 that I have. my thoughts.

are your 2.02 ported and polished? i am thinking that thoes are too big for the 318 , unless you have a REALLY big cam, and rev the piss out of the engine. did you loose any torque on the low end?

i was thinking of getting the bare, non ported 1.92's. they are like $800 and since i already have the mopar 6k valve springs, i would just transfer everything over to the new heads.

Well, I thought that they would be a bit big too but.. I had put an m1 on before the heads and lost a bunch of torque. I seemed to gain my tire spinning ability back on the low end after the heads. THey are not ported or polished, budget would not allow for this, but im sure that this would make a tremendous differencs. I going to have them ported and polised when I put the blower and and have the motor rebuilt when i finish school. I got my heads for $769 bucks and 85 for the intake valves. a good deal i thought, and eveything could be transfered to a 360 in the future
