I think when people are farther along with this thing, at least as far as having the chamber roughed in, would be the time to bring this up, normally when I have done a head like this with no chamber in it they also dont have a plug hole located and we have done that last trying to get it as close to the center as possible. Im glad that people have decided to continue posting in this thread because it appeared to have been killed for a day or so... I really dont intend to comment anymore about this casting until I have had a chance to get it and spend some time with it.
Looks like you were wrong "Mr pro" based on Calvins pic no? I know you said you dont usually comment on a head before you have it but you let a knuckle dragger like Bruce see something you should be able to see I would think?

Ps I call Bruce a knuckle dragger with love! lol
