D3 Heads

Does anyone have experience with the Ford High Port D3 heads? They got a great tech review here The flow bench results of the D3 Head - Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords but at $6,000+ a pair, even for 840 HP, I wonder if it’s worth it for anything less than full sponsored NASCAR racing?

Impressive. Do you happen to have the cam specs from this motor?

Thanks,

Re: D3 Heads

steve,
not with me, out of town right now. it's a hydraulic roller. getting lazy. imho, d3s would me not an advantage in street or track day use, only a full on race effort.

when i get home, i'll post the cam info and a dyno chart.
