Default My DART LS1 heads are here finally(pics)

Well after a long wait they are finally here. I got a machine shop to clean up the combustion chambers and they did a little above the valves too thats why there looks like some grinding down in the ports. These are the new heads that DART came out with recently.

Yes these are as cast except for the combustion chamber and where it has obviously been ground other than that they are stock. Not bad for a set of 1200 buck heads and they still have plenty of room to grow if I got them fully ported.

They come complete with valves retainers and all I got them for a little over a grand but thats because my friends dad owns a major speed shop in Houston otherwise it would have been alot more expensive than it was for the rebuild.

Blown I took some pics of the intake side Ill post em tomorrow vause the camera is out in the shop and the battery is dying
