The so called e-head making all the power is a completely different head that Edelbrock casted.........wide ports, high ports, pushrods moved, offset rockers. the original head would not set ANY records! like I said before that you Larry Wenzler............ he was the FIRST!

The Wenzler head as cast wouldn't set any records.

Porting is allowed in Super Stock class so those heads aren't "as cast" either.

They have changed rules over the years. There have been a lot of "as cast" factory heads win races and set records.

I like to think that the M/T hemi heads did- the only Pontiac to ever take Top Eliminator at an NHRA Nationals. I consider that a "record".

You go back even further than I do, Jack. And I bet you were paying more attention back then, too.
