Quote: We have been working with Edelbrock for quite a while on a new small block Chrysler "Victor" head. We should have a prototype at our shop this week to get some preliminary flow numbers etc... You can expect some type of announcement (maybe even the actual release of the head) from Edelbrock around the P.R.I. show this December. From what we can tell this head is going to support well over 700HP. You guys are right about needing a head like this. We can't wait to get our hands on it! Kevin @ Hughes Engines, inc.
Well that is exciting news! I emailed edelbrock about doing a victor head about 3 years ago. The response wasn't too exciting at that time, but the door sure wasn't shut on it. I think at that time they were still busy with a couple other heads they were releasing, one being the victor 440.
So, is this head going to use some sort of W2 valvetrain? Or will it be unique like the 440 victor was?
