Does anyone have any suggestions for 440 cylinder heads?
Im thinking of using them so I can run a stock 68 440 on 93 octane.
Edelbrock or Mopar?
Do you have to change the intake?
thanks

I would like to keep the stock factory exhaust manifolds and intake manifold if possible, for a stock look with them painted.

The only ones that look kinda original are the Stealths.  The Eddy heads don't look original at all, and  have angle plugs but people still get enough clearance.  The Mopar head does not look original but has straight plugs.

The manifolds will work

Is it a stock 440 (i.e. rebuilt 440 in the last 25 years) or an original 440?  The distinction is important, as there really are not many untouched original 440s around, and most anything rebult does not have the original type piston.  Proper head selection can only be made if you know exactly where the piston top is.
