lol I'll make the trip, I've got to see this for myself and I want to see what I can learn about the block too.... after all, at this point the whole thing is suspect. It sounds like it darn sure isn't supposed to be between the fenders of a 69 Charger. I'll pass along your advice and have him try the Autolite AR24's but I have to know more about what is going on here.
Couple of questions:
- what is the history of these heads, what applications were they intended for?
- Why would they need to design a head that uses a funky spark plug?
- what's with the funky casting number 7579007 that appears nowhere on the internet or in any chart I've ever seen?
- is this 007 head basically like any 452 as far as combustion chamber, ports, valve size, etc.?
