The stock iron heads are prone to cracking so NHRA allowed the
Magnum R/T iron head as a legal replacement with a 5 hp penalty...the R/T head was discontinued so at that point NHRA approved the Edelbrock
# 61767 for use instead....If money is no issue obviously the Edelbrock head is the way to go, but if it is I would try and find someone who is doing the conversion to the Edelbrock heads who has the R/T heads already and see if they would be willing to make you a deal on them.....
Also any of the approved fuel injection computers will run it......
