I'm sure they do warp. Some of the sales people with websites suggested they would be less prone to severe warping and fast chewing. I agree it only slows and reduces these processes. It doesn't eliminate. I am wonder what cold tempering would do the the structure of aluminum heads. Not sure it would be quite as dramatic a difference as with steel.
