Default What are the advantages of aluminum heads?

What are the advantages of aluminum heads? I know they changed in mid-86, so did ALL '87 & up C4's have aluminum heads? In your opinion, is it important enough to base the purchase of a car on, or is it something that is cheaply changed if desired? i.e. if I decided later on to do a cam/intake swap...

Thanks.

I think you're in the wrong section. All C5's have aluminum heads and block.

:bb :bb Oops! How did that happen? :bb :bb

Sorry guys, I'll repost in the C4 section. BTW, every time I see a C5 (which seems to be a lot now that I've got the vette bug!), I think "Man those things are just awesome looking" Too bad their out of my budget!

Later,
:seeya

Sell your C4 and put the money toward a down payment on a C5. :jester
