Thanks for the pictures. I'd never seen the picture of those heads unblown. Was it '62 when he reportedly had the twin-blown V8 at the Indy Nationals? If so, I surprisingly missed seeing it there. Of course that's somewhat understandable, what with him being so busy with Pontiacs that year- trying to iron out the twin-215 V8s dragster (single front-mount blower) and taking Top Eliminator with the Pontiac hemi dragster.

Not mentioned above is the other attraction of these heads on a blown car- visibility.

Tom- not long ago when I called George he didn't mention having more than the one pair of those heads.
