I read the story today of how those heads came to be - a contract to provide engines to the London Cab Company, but differences in the way HP was calculated had Ford about to lose the contract so he commissioned Duntov to design & build a set of conversion heads to boost output power. Years later Chrysler basically copied the design for the first production hemi, and the heads were very nearly interchangeable!! Quite a story!!Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
