PROCOMP Iron SBC heads

[BOOT]

Bought some Procomp/Speedmaster iron heads for a decent price on ebay. 185cc intake & 64cc chamber, bronze guides. Couldn't find much about them and they look like ok heads so far, I do like iron heads. But they are not as advertised and I can return them for a full refund(making a video so not gonna go into detail). Still figured I'd see what some on here have to say about them cause I'm sure someone here has experience with their IRON heads. There are better heads yes but I like that they are cheap, smaller runners & iron.

If you want to get them cnc ported and you know the flow numbers that speedmaster advertise for them I know the place that cnc them for 300.00 per head

Are there any casting numbers? Say, under the valve covers. I'm curious as to whether you'll find "350C" or similar?
I've aftermarket iron heads by RHS and it seems that they and EQ were from the same foundry. RHS discontinued theirs about 10 years back but I believe EQ is still going.

Don't think they have anything cast, I bought them from Speedmaster's ebay account, they came in PROCOMP boxes.

I'll be sure to check out your vid.

FINALLY got the Speedmaster heads video done, not all the merchants fault for the delay. The furnace broke down 4 times, daily too and other junk slowing me down. But I was also waiting for the refund to go through before posting the video and it did last Friday night. Should of had it edited/shipped sooner but like I said LOL Oh well least I got another intake video almost done while waiting, just gotta wrap that one up by the weekend hopefully.

Good Morning Boot,

I am interested in your head review. What are your plans with these? I too am looking for an Iron head for a 350 and I am having one heck of a time finding a good starting point. It seems nearly everyone goes aluminum and I simply don't want to. Are you planning on porting or having these flow tested?

The heads were relisted after my refund and I've been watching/checking them since posting my vid. Looks like someone bought them, hope they work out well for whoever.

I have several sets of Dart heads in iron and aluminium.
Good castings in my opinion, I always buy bare heads.
I like them.

I've wanted to check out some DART iron heads, we'll see how things go in the future. I've got enough heads for now unless I come across a good deal or feel like making another video.

I like my 2 sets of Dart heads too. My 215's worked pretty good last year and the 200cc, 49cc chamber ones I just picked up look like a pretty nice set of heads also. I wouldn't put a projunk head on my lawn mower.

I think the off shore copied heads were really done to fill the gap left from Dart and EQ not producing much for iron heads.
the last 2 years have taken a toll on manufactures and with the sale of Dart to RWB group they stopped producing iron stuff for a long time.
We will see how this year plays out for the iron stuff from the long time head manufactures like Dart if they can keep up with the demand for products like iron heads.

This just left the door open for others to fill the void and shake out the bugs in their program.
