My Christmas list just got very short. Just have to find a way to explain the need for 1200 HP for our street car to my wife.

Great article! If I ever build a bracket engine I'm getting a set of the V heads from Stacy and Lynn. Love the nostalgia of these heads and the technology. Like Pontiac's version of a Boss 302. Hats off to these guys for making this happen.
