    PCE281.1740 - Speedmaster Bare Cylinder Heads is rated 3.0 out of 5 by 2.
    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Speed Master 455 Aluminum Heads Bought these Speed Master/Pro Comp heads bare..and yes...they are as good as the "Eddy's I bought in the past. Buy them bare and use your vales, springs etc and they work out fine. Finish isn't show quality...but solid to build. Did CNC porting with no issues..solid castings.

    Rated 1 out of 5 by from Speedmaster Chevy Heads Bought a set of Speedmaster SB Chevy heads. First firing of engine went well. Second firing was very rough with lots of blue smoke. Valve seals failed and every cylinder had oil in it. Though I was saving money. Should have bought Eddys. Would have worked better and cost LESS! (And they won’t do anything about it)

    So I’m reading that the 455 cast iron heads have a poor oil return too the sump. Are the aluminum heads have any improved oil passages? 

    Asked by: Cabillas
    Speedmaster does not state oil passage return information on their 746-PCE281.1740 cylinder head.
