Angle plugs should be incorporated surely, making them straight plugs makes absolutely zero sense.

A nice looking head for sure and it will make the more purist type of performance guy happy, but if it offers nothing more than a casting number and to mimic the look of a factory head over their competition then they’ll miss the mark.
I am not so sure about that. Once the heat stove sheet metal is installed on the left head and the AC compressor and all the brackets on the right head and that beautiful Pontiac paint, only a few of the Pontiac purists out there will know they are not factory issue, Pontiac heads, IMO. Especially with stock looking casting numbers. Be interesting what Don has in mind for the spark plug placement. Really doubt there is more than 2-3 HP either way in a 500 HP engine. But I have no proof to back that statement up.
