    Just having fun. I'm considering putting Stage 1 or 2 aluminum heads on my convertible's engine when I stick it in my Regal.

    no other comments geez i thought there would be more action on this one?
    guess not
    B :Do No:
    Only real difference is the header expense--I know about different cams etc.

    I've been working on my stage 1 for so long, that I haven't had the opportunity to dream of a stage 2 yet! So build yours and tell us all about it! I need a good model to copy! :laugh: :3gears:

    Both Boss

    Brian, Why don't you try something different. :puzzled:
    For Example: Stage 1 head on one side :)
    Stage 2 on the other :)

    = Stage 3? :Do No:

    well now im leaning twards sg1 heads --Ive got the headers and intake and dont think that there will be that much power lost between the 2 heads and
    I keep hereing about the horrors of getting the stg2 headers in the frame.
    Anymore pluses for haveing stge2's
    I just cant take it :shock:
    Any more ideas :Do No:

    I would say they both are a good idea. If you have some parts that you could put to use on a stage 1 motor, I would say the stage 1 would be a better choice! :TU:
