Thumbs up

There it is I seen it and the head when I went to see Frank and his family the day I picked up my head he built for Victoria's 170/.
I for got the co. that built the rail racer and I seen the NHRA approved build plate
Just look at the combustion chambers on that head
I am so glad he is just 83 miles from my home here on the hill and frank has been a great friend and know my BIG brother
He will see allot of me this year for sure
I am blest to have a /6 guru so close to me

WOW Aaron Your quick!!! I PM him 42 seconds after he posted it for sale

Yes on the head on right being an American (Mopar) production head. The head on the right has been highly modified including bore notches, 1.78 intake and 1.50 exhaust valves (Ford 300) and a LOT of port work. I will try and get an unmodified head out and put next to this new Argentine head.
Plan is to flow test this head. Then do a LOT of testing on it. Not sure of the platform the head will end up in yet. For sure it wont end up in a street only car.

Thanks for the vote of confidance Mike

I hope to get my head flowed this spring. It was built years ago with 1.80 red ram intakes and 1.50 318 exhaust valves. Ported in a back yard and I know the ports are too wide based on what I am reading. We will see. Love your head! Best of luck with it.

Looks like a swirl port 302 casting version of the L6 head. Pretty cool. Must have cost a small fortune to get shipped from Argentina..in a metal box!

I've gotten a few PMs from him. His whole shop was blown out into a field from a bad storm a while back.
