VERY nice, thank you for sharing.

I like the angle  Smiley  And you also get extra points in my book for not copying someone else.

beautiful! a work of art.

I can only imagine how many hours it must take to machine one. and i bet you are very happy they are aluminum and not stainless steel (it takes so much more time to machine and is hard on tools)  Wink

truely a beautiful head.

Both valve guides are clearly canted in my eyes = superior flow at higher lift.

I spotted a big problem! Better remove those heads and sell them to me Mexx, they do not fit your car at all.



I also noticed the additional inlet in the intake channels. For injectors, fuel or nos? Perhaps both?

Again thank you for sharing. Let us discuss my specs and the price so that you can bring my pair to SCC this August Smiley

intake & exhaust are canted

Cool, the exhaust is obvious,
but the intake angle is very subtle, likely only a degree or so.
What were the flow numbers? 369cfm 25" at what lift?

Dear Dave

Intake is 4° canted and flowed 369 CFM @ .800 lift
Exhaust is 5° canted and flowed 245 CFM @ .750 lift

the head is still in progress ...
