Heads will go through the post office now if packed in two boxes (less than 70lbs) and I have found that they are cheaper than UPS.

I had a pair of 113 heads shipped from Idaho to Michigan and I think it was about $60 a head.

I shipped a pair of bare castings from here to Alabama a couple years ago.  Seems like it cost around $35-40 per head.  McTim in Ca has recently acquired a large stash of Y parts, he may be willing to sell you some heads.  He's a lot closer to you than I am.

If I can horn in, shipping is likely quite some $$ If you can't find anything in Oregon, try this guy in Calif.. Mike Henaults, La Grange CA. 209-852-2476 or e mail heanaults@jps.net. He specializes in Y-Block engine & transmissions & even Oval track races them.

As Glen mentions, the search function will bring up lots of information on both heads and intakes.  Just key in different search terms for a variety of information.

I’ll add that any of the big valve heads are a good starting point.  These include the G’s, 113’s, and 471’s.  The 471’s are considerably larger in combustion chamber size and are well suited to supercharger applications or for normally aspirated applications when using a domed piston.  Likewise, the 1956 ‘C’ heads also provide a decent step up in performance.

Here’s a recent post regarding the aluminum heads.   http://www.y-blocksforever.com/forums/Topic28100-11-3.aspx    In essence, the production is still several months off when taking pre-testing into consideration.

Heads will cost anywhere from a couple hundred to 300-400 if they have been cleaned etc. I am talking NC prices. I paid $75.00 for a set of 113 heads had them worked and had about 300 in them with new valves ,springs seat etc. Post 57 distributor. Autozone/advance have 62 truck distributors for around 50.00 . You ned this because of the mechanical and vacuum advance. I have MSD ignition box and coil on mine . I have a Blue Thunder intake with a 415CFM Holley and 1" spacer and Ford Power train headers. When put together correctly, adjustments made properly, and all the buttons and whistles secure you should very easily blow off a cork or 2 with it.
