The camel backs were good in their day, but Frank is right on the aluminums. Also, some of the new cast heads sell for a very reasonable price, and have better flow numbers then the old ones. If I had a set of camel backs, I'd be listing them on eBay for the numbers matching crowd to grab, then buy some good ones..!!!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Weren't these generally referred to as "fuel injection heads?" I remember for years if you looked at a guys sbc and he didn't have the distinquishing humps the car was considered low performance. But it you saw them it was cool.
Time has probably marched on though, as the others have said. Seems like aluminum heads have become the current buzz word for all engines, Chevy or Ford.
