I want to get a set of these heads for my 340 so I can run unleaded. They are the loaded ones for $1015.00 at jegs but they are saying something about raised exhaust ports and I have the dougs d453 headers. Are these headers going to work with these heads? Going in my 71 challenger.
Any setbacks that I need to look out for?
Thanks,
Scott
 
If you‘re just concerned about using unleaded gas, the valve seat lubrication is rarely an issue.

My x heads are unusable because of using unleaded. The valve seats are beat up in the heads and machine shop says thats why.
 
Can you find out how much the port is raised? If it is only a small amount you might be OK??
 
That is quite a bit. Off the top of my head that could cause problems.
Never used those heads though.
