If you are talking about this motor

Then the reason it doesnt mention heads is it is a short block - ie no pistons, barrels or heads.
Just case, crank, cam and rods.

I would ask what crank it is.
If it is a no name chinese i would ask for an upgrade to a nitrided 4340 crank

The Engle 110 is ok - nothing wild
