Have the big boy AFR’s been released yet and are the readily available?
Nothing is readily available and it’s getting worse. AFR is another manufacturer who advertises products in development that aren’t available yet. I talked to them over two years ago after they were promoting those heads at PRI. They were taking deposits as it was just going to be “a month or two”. I have not talked to or seen anybody running anything from them on a Gen 3 Hemi yet.

They’re still not better than stock Redeye heads. You can get 2 Redeye heads for $2500 COMPLETE. Don’t do it, waste of $. They don’t even have em drilled for the supercharger yet
This is the deal of the century. You're basically getting $1,000 worth of supporting parts for free - head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, rocker arms, rocker shafts, fasteners, etc., AND if you shop around, you can do even better on the MSRP. I bought this kit last year and got it on my doorstep for less than MSRP.

That’s a great deal, didn’t see where you said you found them. If you’re looking for something NOW I would go that route over waiting weeks for the other guys. There’s a reason not many companies do heads for these cars. Minimal gains

about what I paid too. Different dealers play games with core (I didn't get charged for that), tax, and/or shipping. All I care about is what leaves my wallet. Got mine from dealer in LI NY - no core, no tax, and reasonable shipping for cross country.
