You can generally run more compression, they disappate heat better. I used Dart 180cc Pro1 heads on my 388 along with its EFI aluminum intake I shaved a tone of weight off the engine, almost 100 lbs from what I remember.

resale will be better as well when it's time to sell.

you can get them hard anodized for the salt water...just bought 2 sets of AFR alum. heads and had them hard anodized them...I got them for use with new whipples, better flow, weight, better heat disapate...
