Default New Head for Small Block

New head for small block.

I am a fan of smaller sized runners, but even I think this is a case
of taking things too far.

I believe these might have already been seen elsewhere on the
forum, but ...

If you are going to go to the trouble and expense of changing the
heads, it makes sense to swap to a matching cam.

Which usually means degreeing the new cam during re-assembly.

Ok.

That is a real head for a mini motor that runs. It is called the Stinger 609.
Notice the size of the paving bricks below.



Though it is not a Stinger, click the link in post #2 for more info on
the mini Hemi-headed puppy.

Seriously, though. That Ferrari 312PB and the other work that Pierre Scerri
of MPSport-Proto is doing is breath-taking.

Take a look at his website: MPSport-Prototypes

Thanks, I was looking for that site but couldn't find it.






I'm amazed how these tiny motors sound. Sounds better than the real life ricer motors.
