personally I have no issue with the aftermarket heads as long as the HP factor is appropriate for the increase in performance if there is one. My Combo there is a 10 hp penalty for running the aftermarket heads. I still run the factory iron heads on my car. I would like to have a nice set of brand new aluminum heads but I am not going to spend 10 grand on a new set of heads at this point in my life. There are guys out there where money is no object.

When NHRA approved the Edelbrock heads they should have gotten some sort of agreement with Edelbrock that theywould produce a certain number of each head that was approved every year. Now we have a list of approved heads and some of them cant be purchased. NHRA should be looking to add to their list of approved heads seeing how Edelbrock has indicated they wont be making the heads that were approved for us.
