Is there going to be much of a difference on flow? I have recently purchased a new intake for my 383. Its an accel Super Ram. It has the potential to flow much more than my last ported TPI, which made ok HP numbers. I've always been handcuffed by the cast l98 heads and could probably pull a little more timing with aluminum heads, with their reputation as being High compresion freindly. My quetion is is it worth it to goto the aluminum L98 vs the Cast?

I would say yes its worth it for being able to run higher compression and the weight savings. Plus alum. is a little easier to port. All the Vette,s had Alum. heads starting in '87 to present.

I think it's pretty common for thirdgen guys to go with vette heads, especially when they want heads on the cheap. Rather than buying some expensive aftermarket brand, you can pull a set off a junker corvette and have them ported and milled and a valve job done for a couple hundred. Plus there's a little weight savings.Dave M
