Yes, Canfield makes an excellent head! They don't advertise much so you don't hear about them. All the go fast guys know about themthough.

I heard they discontinued making Canfield LT1 heads due to slow in sale. They few people that have them and are very happy with them. They must be that good.

EXCELLENT heads!!! I used them on my Vette since '99. Their big 220cc heads are the last 23 degree set I had until I started building the SB2 motor. I went 9.90's with them on the bottle in a full weight street Vette with a stick.

I don't mean to hijack the thread but will my Hooker Headers bolt up to a set of angle plug Canfields or will there be clearance issues? THANKS GUYS PIPE

THANK YOU I thought that the angles might be different then the L98 plug angle like AFR has and headers wouldn't fit. What about Brodix's heads?

I bought my Canfield heads from Competition Products in Oshkosh, WI. $1055 delivered to the door in 5 days. I've been happy with them too.

I can tell you the Track 1's aren't an issue with the Hooker's.
