While chasing a valve cover gasket leak, I discovered that the previous owner of my 428 decked the CJ heads (hence the high CR), and the intake/head plane has a pronounced step. Instead of spending money to machine the intake down to match the head plane, I'm considering pulling the heads and replacing them with Trick Flow 175 heads and a Track Heat intake. That way, I can correct the compression ratio down a bit and have a known starting point. In one of my other threads, I asked about the streetability of the Lunati cheater cam that I have, and was told basically "leave it in, it's fine."
What are your thoughts on this combo? Does anyone have experience with the TF heads for the 428? Anything else I should consider?
