Default se pro compressor head reviews?

Has any one run or is anyone running the se procrompessor heads. Was talking to a guy at the dealer ship he recommended procompressor heads and 259 cams to me. Just wondering if worth it.

you already got a set of nice heads on your bike. send them out and for what you will spend on the SE heads you will have a nicer set of heads. Rumor has it that the SE compressor heads are just decked vs stock heads.

If you were looking for honest advice regarding SE heads, you're at the wrong website! We'll have none of that here son!

They also recommended maybe a 500 to a 575 redshift cam is that better than the 259?

Thumbs up

I'm with MTclassic on this. History has shown that getting your stock heads ported, CC'd and re-valved, is cheaper and produces far greater results in torque, HP and fuel economy.

Producer is right. Go the cheap route and just have your stock heads worked. Save your money for tattoos and cigars!
