    I heard of guys having problems with them and others swear by them after they've been reworked, porting, good valves and springs, etc. So I guess they're probably ok if you get them checked out and do a mild port. Don't expect them to run like AFRs, TWs, Darts, etc. I'm betting the shop that recommended them gets a pretty good markup on them.
