Picked up a pair of New in Box heads C7RA-6050B. Other than being Aluminum, is there anything interesting about these heads that I should know? Will they have any problems on a 59A engine? Most times I've seen them before was on cars well above my own. Thanks: Fred A

If these are the kind of heads I've been wanting, I think these are sort of like Denver heads or "cheater" heads, as they were used for racing. People would paint them stock color. I think these have a good compression number, and they were used in higher altitudes. I'm not an expert on these though, I'm sure others will tell the exact story. I could be completely wrong though too. Here's another thread that may help:
