Jeff, not dissing you. I know all about that water hose coming off deal having seen several dyno tests at Steve's shop where the engine was trying to tell us it was not happy.

Brian's engine for one, when the "crooked tree" heads failed the head gasket.

Steve thought the engine needed more timing like a BB Chebby. It turned out it made best power with the timing number I recommended.

I think that a set of "V-Heads" would work well with boost

Whatever happened to the black firebird with V heads and a Vortech blow through on it?

Often wondered about that myself. Saw it at VMP 6 or 7 years ago.

I agree, I think the exhaust/intake pattern and solid option makes it appealing. Since Im running methanol, I see no reason to run water in the heads. I would like to see the solid as-cast street head with 90cc chambers on a boosted engine.

Don, shoot me an email when you get that worked out.
