Re: New Double Hump Heads

That is interesting. I did not know Trick Flow had those. The pricing on the heads from Speedway are close to what Summit gets for the TF's. I do not know anything about what Speedway is advertising other than what is in the link I posted. I'd be interested to know if they are a Chinese copy.

They are producing a 461 Aluminum copy with 175 intake runners, vortec combustion chamber and all the goodies dressed and undressed. Noted also with Accessory bolt holes, and without.

Is this their product? Or made in china copy?

Re: New Double Hump Heads

I just looked at the pics a little closer and I see the name Flotek on the guideplates. So I guess that answers the question of what brand they are and where they come from.

Unless you can prove they're not Chinese junk, I'd buy something else. Name one good thing that's come from China? Covid? Time to take a stand people. You reap what you sow.

I agree! The money stays here, jobs, and a person is able to benefit to some degree by their skills, and spend that money here, where it matters.

I have been rebuilding parts that I buying from local guys, just because, OEM and built, and bought.
