Speedmaster Black Friday price range would work for me.
Doubt I would go 3k for a pair. Or any other pair.

If the price works out to be comfortable on the D-Ports I could be in for 3 sets - eventually.
Would have to grind off the 48 and stamp them with 77 , 093 , 670 and call them over the counter service replacements.

I'd sell my factory 614's and buy these if it were a good financial gain in my favor.

It would be easy to offer the heads with different casting numbers. They would have to wait for the next batch to be cast but I think that wouldn't be an issue with most.

That would be really kicking some serious butt , if they can grow it out like that.
Revolutionary !
Everybody swaps out to aluminum pump gas hi-flow that look stock.

As long as it's just two digits, couldn't you mill out two
little oval pockets that accept token-like castings with
raised numbers? On Sunday he had a pair of 13s, today
they're small valve 17s?

That'd be a good idea, one could have a tall boss and just mill the numbers you want. You can see the 48's are on a plate, I was just thinking you could install what ever numbers you wanted. That's how the reproduction HO/RA manifolds were done..... I like your idea better and it'd save the wait time.

Unfortunately, the majority of Pontiac people want Brodix quality at Speedmaster prices. That’s never gonna happen.

Don’s RA V heads are really nice heads.
I’m sure these will also be excellent heads at a fair price. But not cheap.

After they copied, I believe a valve body, with the original manufacturers name, I will not buy from them.
