Were there other aluminum D port Pontiac heads available?
Back in 1989 or so, I was at Bremerton Dragway and there was a guy walking round with an aluminum D port Pontiac head. I don’t remember much about it, other than he had one.

I believe the single head he had was a conventional D port, the only difference was it was aluminum. So I’m guessing it was a rare item.

The Algon Pontiac Fuel Injection parts are worth that kind of cash.
The Hilborn stuff for sure is not, in my opinion. Tom V.
