    Help! new head for F22a6

    Hey all. Have a question and I'm not sure if anyone here has delt with this product at all... I'm looking at purchasing a new head for my F22A6, because I want to get more power from my F platform, don't want to drop 2 large on an H, and because my current head has a bit of oil consumption (nothing serious, I think it's the valve guides worn due to lack of back pressure).

    The product(s) I'm looking to purchase is as follows:
    Bullfrog head (brand new)
    Skunk2 Stage 2 cam, with an AEM cam gear. Wondering if anyone has used any of these products at all previously, and if so, how were they?

      how many lockdown bolts are on the stock cam gear, 4? I can't imagine it coming off if torqued down properly, there should be enough centrifugal force to hold that constantly I would think...

        yea i doubt they will come off. just torque them down correctly. are you buying a head that is already built?

            it looks like that bull frog haed also comes with a cam. im sure if you call them they might have a more aggressive cam to match the skunk 2

              Yeah, this is a Bullfrog head that someone bought to build a 90 EX, then sold it... the head originally bought for $1650, and the skunk2 cam another $300... I'm getting it for about $720, with the AEM cam gear as well as a full gasket kit (including shipping from US to Canada).

                    *shrugs* apparently I was misinformed... The guy clarified, it's a gude came. All I care about really is the brand new head. It's going to save me from having to get mine ripped apart and the guides drilled out.
