Looking for DOVE heads

[Wyflyer]

my son is looking for some 429/460 DOVE heads for a mud race truck.
Hope to find some in Texas. Or maybe someone that could bring them to OCBR

I see them pop up on CL every so often around me. Tell him to put a WTB ad up and check 460ford.com and he should have some luck.

Or sell everything now, take up a cheap hobby and save himself thousands

I have heard for years that the C9VE heads are virtually identical. He may find those a lot more readily?

if he wants serious power for a 460 from a cast iron head go here http://reincarnation-automotive.com/

Call my Friend Jerry at B&G automotive in Alvin. 281-331-7911. He may have some or know where some are.

If I were in TX, I would sell you the set of C9VE heads I have on my 429 and upgrade to some aluminum heads. I built mine back in 2000...wouldn't build it the same today, as there are too many better options. By the time I installed ARP screw-in studs, hardened seats, guides, valves, keepers, roller rockers, etc, I cringe to even think what I have into them.

I have a buddy that thinks he has a set in his shop. Said he would take $250 for them if he can find them. I could bring them to OCBR with me.

I've found a set of original uncut core for 200.00 through craigslist, am working on that avenue. Thanks for the tips and offers, I may still need this info..
