by the way, the "god i hate ricers" in your sig makes you look as if you had the mentality of a high school hater

Gator,

You are right I was a little harsh but this kid does ask a lot of lame ass questions. I make no appologies for the comments in my sig because a fart pipe and a big wing do not a fast car make.

But to answer the original question:

The Dart heads are cast iron and they lack the same bolt holes for the accessory brackets that the stock heads have. They are usualy used in classes that allow Iron heads\and no porting only and they usualy get run on cars running race gas. The Trickflow twisted wedge heads are aluminum, have the right bolt holes to mount all the stock brackets and they even have a CARB EO number for smog controlled vehicles. Since they are aluminum you could run them on pump gas as well.

i agree with the fartpipe and "iceman" intakes dont make fast cars - they are economy cars. oh and the big wing, i love the double decker platform wings. i like to call them picnic tables. i set my beer on them
