Boy........... Just dreaming... ..... If this head indeed is only just as good as Brett noted.... Still good steam.
I just let slip by my grasp a virgin 4 bolt X block. Was offered it for 1300 bucks.
Kinda got tired of waiting on this head.
Anyhow good block, that head, 4150 carb, a 4.125 crank kit from Rod, and a streetable roller a guy could take a typical A body and have a 9 sec pump gas grocery getter, without working up too much of a sweat.
For an old schooler, a good( hopefully) nice casting is welcome news.
Sure wouldn't be cheap, but at least the heads hopefully won't be water fountains.
Cool old school is mighty appealing to old goats like me.


I know where you can get a virgin X block with all machine work done, bushed lifter bore and all
