Smile New RACE head info now available

Dave Wilcox has released flow numbers and some pics of his new Ram Air V-based billet race head. This is unlike anything Pontiac people have seen before. They outflow any currently advertised heads (peak). And though based on the valve layout of Ram Air V, that's where the similarities end. NOT a "tunnel port", this head employs modern trapezoidal "tall" ports.

The real news is the low-and mid-lift numbers. Good builders know, peak numbers sell product. Average numbers make power. We're more about making power... These heads will be able to be used on anything from a 500 HP streeter or bracket engine, to near 4K HP blown/alcohol.

These heads have been produced for the new engine for Goateus Maximus. They'll be "mapped" and variations will be available.

We're going back on safari! (hunting elephants...)

Yep, Skip, Crossram is cool (in Plastic) and has a bunch of mods put into it that we have had in our modded crossrams for many years.

They Ported a BG Tri-Power for me that was 1st Class work by Dave W.

Nice addition to the arsenal! Dave knows how to move some air.
Pushrod offset? Valve length?

You sure about the "streeter" capabilities though? Billet heads drilled for coolant usually dont flow enough coolant in critical areas for street cruisin' or road race use. Most drag cars running billet are towed to lanes and back down return road unless running alcohol.
