They have turbo applications as well... that is what I run on my set-up. I am running a 25-22 intake cam and a mild exhaust turbo cam.

If I had to do it all over again I would go with portflow since Gude is a real pain in the *** to deal with. Their customer service is not the best in the world.

well i did some searching and the consensus is that they have horrible customer service and there is a trend of sending wrong or damaged parts. However these were all claims/opinions so you may want to search for yourself, search for gude in archived topics, there is plenty of info on them.

Damaged parts? Yep... A kindegardener could have done a better job correctly packaging my Head assembly then Gude did. Not only did the box arrive beat up, but it arrived 10 houses down the street from mine. One cam cap was broken and the head was dented in several spots. Long story short, after a huge headache and 10 long *** calls on the phone with Bill Gude and UPS I was finally sent another head a week later.

besides their customer service and that stuff, how are they performance wise. they claim 58 hp to the wheels. thats a good amount of power.

do the search, they are also people that claim the hp figures are exaggerated.

hey i talked to tom from portflow and he said that he wouldn't p&p my head because it was a h23.

bought a head from gude before and customer service and product is only ok

i am dealing with DPR racing and the quality and pricing is pretty good

if your porting for a turbo application, it is actually cheaper because it is mild work compare to headwork on a NA
