For a low-buck 351 build, what is everyone's opinions of these heads? The CR would be right at 10:1, fuel injected application. Lemme know your thoughts!

My friend used these heads on a 331 with an S-trim pullied for 12psi with 9.5:1 CR and put down over 500rwhp. I'd say they work pretty well.

A buddy of mine is using them on a 351 swap in his 91 gt. It was not much of a huge build up, but a slightly better than stock set up none the less. These heads seem to work very well for his application. It's also, as yours if, a 10.0:1 compression set up as well.
For the money, I'd drop a few extra bucks and go with something a little better, but you must really ask yourself what you're looking for in a combo, both price, and performance wise...and what parts will be used in your overall combo.

We tested them and did not have the best results on Gromm racings flow bench. The exhaust valve seat was out of place due to the molds having core shift. Left a big ridge on the short side. And they were quite a bit heavier than a set of '69 351 heads.
