INDY/RHS heads

Wouldn't it be better if they were aluminum so in addition to the obvious weight
savings, you could run at least another point of compression?


Remember that extra point is restoring the heat that the aluminum takes away. You're not getting more bang for it - just getting back to where an identical head made of iron would be.
Aluminum vs iron always always always comes down to value - meaning cost vs reward. If someone places a higher value on initial buy in cost than some of the benifts aluminum will never make sense. Personally, if better heads are needed, no way I'm paying to run iron.
