If you want pair of C9VE or D0VE heads, I have them for sale...bare, cleaned & blasted, or competely rebuilt and assembled as oem stock, or ported and with valve upgrades. Price varies, here are some examples:
- Cleaned & blasted bare castings: $250
- Rebuilt with stock valve train and valve job, new keepers and seals: $400
- Cleaned, blasted and bare ported castings: $800
- Cleaned, blasted, ported castings with big valves, 3-angle valve grind & springs: $1200
- (all prices shipping not included)
While you can do a lot with the D3VE heads, portwork is very detail-oriented and getting good compression with a 460 & D3VE's requires heavy domed pistons. I have a 460 motor with D3VE's, for example, that puts out 580HP. But the D0VE's are higher up on the performance head food chain.
D3VE's on a 460 with zero deck and flat-top pistons will give you about 9.3:1 comrpession ratio. D0VE's under the same circumstances will put you over 11:1, but dished pistons can reduce that comrpession ratio.
Do you need to run pump gas? How much HP do you wish to make?

I bought the 76 in August , but haven't been able to work on it. When I get a chance I'll post some pictures.
