womacks is the ones that did my heads. he was really straight forward and didnt beat around the bush. he told me the day he will have them done, and he was dead on. no waiting, no having to call to check on my heads.

he built a local guys 426 hemi and that thing is f'n sweet. just saying....he is a good guy, and priced just right imo.

im getting him to build me a 427 if i ever go that route

Do they have the ability to flow test the heads? and did you get a flow chart?
