Actually just returned from the abbreviated Speed Week at Bonneville Salt Flats. [Rained out. Three events in a row]. The Henry Head lll is still in the works, but not on Frank's [Henry] highest priority right now. Actually I'm still waiting for CNC Dude to use his modern machine capability to build a cross flow alloy head for the "320". We are limited in our capability to a chop saw, a drill press, and a band saw, and a mig welder.

Anyway, it will happen in my lifetime.

If some one has a bad cylinder head they could send me i'll be glad to give it a shot. Im fixing to machine a test combustion chamber for my Chevy 12 Port Head patterns, so I have my focus on heads right now. Just let me know. Here's the chamber below.

I could probably bring a "wounded" head to World of Speed next month if that would help. Maybe there is somebody there that could get it to you.

I know of a billet head in the works.......

Billet is cool, but you will have a market of only about 1 or 2 people. For the same effort I can make all the patterns and cores to cast a performance head that can have a much broader appeal from stock-ish to all out race applications and have many dozens of them.

Oh, I don't do it for the market, in fact the complete opposite. I wouldn't want anyone else to have what we have on our car. That's how we set and keep records!
