Yes there is a possibility of new RA-V heads. We ran RA-V heads in our NHRA 69 TransAm in 1982 in A/Modified Production at 3450 lbs and it went 147mph.

However, that was the same year when NHRA allowed to our surprize the new alum small block heads.

There was no way for a production head to compete with the 300 cubic inch small blocks after that. The National record in A/MP went from 9.41 to 8.92 the next year.

The Super Chief heads with our few modifications
show very real peformance in the ability for Pontiac guys to compete in Competition eliminator in NHRA. We got 427 cfm with a 2.3 with a special designed and improved combustion chamber. Our next step was to go with a 2.4 valve with some special work, so we can compete with the B-1 Mopar heads.

It is definitely a great and exciting time for Pontiac racers. :-)
