Are PI Heads better than milling my heads
I was wondering if anyone new what would be better to do buy new heads or just mill my old ones. i read somewhere that milling them is cheaper than buying new ones and you get the same horsepower or better.

there are pros and cons to each...most people will say that if you want a super/turbo then PI heads wont be good because of the raise in compression...the Non Pi heads have lower compression and when they are ported and polished or "milled" they actually flow better then STOCK PI heads...someone else will chime in

Do not mill the heads. It can throw off the cam timing. PI heads are the way to go IMO. And get te PI heads portrd and polished.
