The 291 feulie heads were fair performance heads 35 years ago. But chances are
that they`ve been machined a couple times ( at least )m, had a few valve jobs
etc...so to salvage them into anything useable is very expensive. Even a decent
set isn`t worth much nowadays because off the shelf Vortec truck heads flow
more, and make a ton more HP and torque for $450 brand new,. It would cost you
that much to ,make these old heads work half as good. The 291 heads often
didn;t have accessory holes on them. They were common on 327 Impala`s, camaros,
some corvettes. Used on the 250hp motors mosty. That was 250 in the OLD
measure. That same 1968 250 hp motor makes about 175 under the new standards.
So a 250 2004 motor makes a LOT more power that a 1968 250 hp motor. The new
vortec heads will easily support 400 hp. You`d have to spend a fortune on those
old 291 heads to get even close. Take `em if you have no hope of ever getting
your cash. Old heads are better than nothing.
