no more tiger heads? All Pontiac
https://butlerperformance.com/b-9992...llpontiac.html
i talked to david butler at norwalk and they definitely said edelbrock pro port victors were more likely to be available then tiger heads. is this the end of All Pontiac? i hope not. |
Well since those Pro Ports are not being made anymore when they run out, what next ?
|
David said they will be available to Butler and BES in july
|
Got a set though BES its their Victor head they flow 480 cfm. Redesign pro port head. Thank you uncle Tony…LOL its their 72 cc chamber.
|
My understanding is they are dealing Direct with Edelbrock and worked on the new design but can also deal through Butler. Get in line, no tire kickers..LOL
|
Last time I talked to Frank he was having an issue finding someone to cast his heads, preferably in the US is what I understood.
Maybe since then it's as Gach stated, he ended up having Edelbrock cast them. So that's good news. |
Kauffman (KRE ) someone posted a while back, who was trying to get KRE block and was told by Kauffman, there was none available because they were looking for a new foundry to cast new blocks. I don’t know if that situation has changed.
|
Frank says it’s only a temporary delay in heads and blocks
|
A lot has changed in the past 2 going on 3 years, Leonatti was bought out by Comp cams and Comp cams has been bought out by Edelbrock.
|
Wow, so Kauffman is having the same issue as Frank. Geeez
|
When you decide to get rid of your industrial base these things happen.
I hope Frank and KRE get it all worked out through US foundries. We will pay more for it but better than offshore. |
KRE does post skids of raw heads arriving. Are the foundries for a block different capability than blocks?
|
Foundry for IA blocks used to be casted right here in RI. I did some work at that foundry. Drains where plugged spent 2 days there.

The Tiger2 head is very nice hopefully it isn't discontinued. The pro port is nice but it doesn't have raised exhaust ports and needed welding around spring pockets for proper roof height (maybe that has been fixed since the first run of heads though??).
