Hi Bob,
    These are great prices. I was at the web site and have been trying to discern if the bare heads include guides and seats. I would be interested in a pair for a 2.1L.

  You could get the heads bare and use your German valves (if you have the 
  sodium filled exhaust can reuse once) 

  Any shops want to buy for a group purchase?  I have mine but others might 
  want a set cheap. 

  Complete heads in sets of 10 with a 50% markup is only $378. 

  Is there a shop on the list that will sell them for a less markup? 
  Maybe they can sell to a group purchase if there is enough interest. 
  If they do you could get TWO heads for a little more than one head.  Add your 
  hardware and save some money.
