I might want to buy a set of M&A heads and just want to know what you guys run out there with these heads, and what is yor set-up EX( turbo, torque convertor, inj, etc). I would also want to know if you guys have had problems with these like warping or cracking, etc?

Thanks ahead for your help,
Marco

I have a gen 2 with an extender chip and LS1 maf, hr rear sway bar, no front sway bar, 90/10 lakewood in the front and 50/50 lakewood shocks in the rear with energy suspension poly bushings all over, boxed rear lower control arms. MT 275/60/15 drag radials. Big mouth cold air with an AFE air filter. I did't get a chance to try this set-up. Taking out the stock 109 block and replacing with a rebuilt 109 with 2 center billet main caps, and weisco forged pistons
 
I personally went 10.0s with them. There are two TSM guys running them in the mid 9s. Tim Lemay and Art Frey.

Make sure you get the whole package heads rockers guide plates and valve covers. You will find if you dont you will be hard pressed to find these replacement parts.
 
Alky engine v2.0. Vegas 2005.
9.19 @ 145.5 using 20-22 psi boost.
T76, Q trim, .81 a/r. It might have been with the .96 a/r housing. Not sure now.
11.4:1 static CR.
Methanol fueled.

Original valve sizes in the M&A heads. Max ported. These were 1st gen heads and I'm still running them today. No warpage through 2 engine blowups due to preignition of the methanol. Strong suckers.

Quickt what is your set-up to run flat tens? These are 14 bolt heads, and was told that I could still put it on a 109 block which has 8 bolts holes, is this true?

Thanks
