History of the ported VW head? Styles that have come and went....
Jim Ratto:
who knows about the Porsche-Salzburg modded VW heads from the 70's for rally use?
Tony M:
back in the day circa 1974 - i has a 69mm roller with 88mm ks p&c's - R&R did the heads - large round port, shaved guides with large valves and a single 48 IDA - motor was a screemer - pulled to no ends - R&R was in a shop in sears point - very nice heads for the time

somewhere online I saw some pics of the modded VW heads that were on the Salzburg cars....looked kind of similar to the Lonnie Reed wedge port actually, but larger ports.
