is there any difference other than price in the street eliminator heads that cb and bugpack have or are they the same heads just sold by different companys?

also how would these heads work in the woods on a 2332 or 2387?

You will get many different views on big valve heads for the Woods. Personally I prefer smaller valved heads with smaller ports. They produce torque in the RPM ranges we use. SEs and similar are more for high RPM street and drag performance. I like the CB 044 heads with 35 x 40 valves. A mild port job and they are a great VW head for a 2332 or 2387 for what we do.

Both heads look the same, but the CB Performance ones are a little different than the Bugpack one as far as the casting looks, the Bugpack ones are the more expensive one too, I can really tell the difference just by looking at them sitting on the shelf at Drew's buggy shop, as far as the the performance goes, I would say that they are the same. Bugpack has their own company to do their products as well as CB Performance has their own and they just have their own style of the design with a few little different features. I personally like the 44m x 37.5mm valves, I have plenty of bottom end torque and plenty more upstairs all the way to 6000 rpm, it all depends on what cam and gearing you use and even the weight of the buggy has a lot to do with it too. I run a 3.10 first gear and still blowing the tires out when I take off on the bottom on a hill and even on a hill :evil: That's when its time to go for the 2nd gear tranny :twisted: :twisted:
