I'm building a street 350 motor for my 87 El Camino. Currently, I am in the market for a set of heads for my motor. I read on another site that Summit Racing heads are built by Trick Flow, specifically SUM-162109. Any confirmation on this?

Motor consists of forged, balanced crankshaft, rods, and flat top pistons with 2 eyebrows; Comp Thumpr Cam 12-601 with matched springs, push rods, hydraulic lifters, and self-aligning 1.52 ratio roller tip rockers. As an old school guy, I plan to run a dual quad setup consisting of '57-62 Corvette WCFBs on a stock intake manifold.

Thanks in advance.

Yeah at what mercury drop and what size bore did they flow it on AFR tells you what size bore they are using small blocks are 4.100 flowed
Not to sure on that it was on a article , probably just the advertisement flow , definitely alot more plays into things. Look at the price tag between tickflow and AFR tho lol
