I am hoping that you do just that. The folks can work "backwards" sort of based on your NA record if you make it. Toned down a tad, water jackets on gas.
It might start a whole new avenue for Pontiac die hards. Racers will get the added benefit of longer head gasket life, RAV ports without tubes in the way and still take a Pontiac valve cover with inline valves.
Dave said he could add cooling to the heads and make them sized for any ci engine.
Hopefully they take off with enough interest to get them cast with real water jackets down the road. He told me how expensive that deal could be.

Wow!
But... I've gotta ask... what on earth is that VERY TALL head on the bench behind it? And what sort of chamber shape?

Looks like BBC airflow research cylinder heads in the background. Also there is a bench work extension on the front and rear of that cylinder head so I suppose they’re not as tall as they look. I definitely could be wrong.tho LOL

Well as usual I should think before I speak. I thought it milled AFR on the cylinder head (the one on the bench ) don’t want to be that jackass that doesn’t respect the great accomplishments made. Sorry

Kind of looks like a Allen Johnson logo to me. Being a super charger inspired looking shop that would fit in.

That’s an AJ hemi head. This is in the Fowler Superchargers shop. Jeff Fowler bought Kobelco years ago. He has a full machine shop and specializes in tractor pulling engines.
Can you imagine ordering 5 hat to pan complete engines?
Jeff services the hemi in the promod I drive, that’s how I know him. I put him on this task about a year ago. He designed and built the timing cover.
After this I’m not sure he’s a Pontiac fan lol.
But he is a funny car fan. He won a couple world IHRA championships in his day.

Steve,
Are you sure? Does not look like any Hemi I have ever seen. It look more like a AJ 481X to me.

Yea you’re probably right, I was assuming hemi since it said AJ on it. I forgot about the 481X. I live in a bubble.
