The reintroduction of the W-5 head would be great. I think that the W-5 was simply ahead of its time when the ease of building big inch small blocks was simply not that affordable. Here we are in a day and age when the common small block is 400 inches +.. MOPAR, We need this head reintroduced with some of the updates such as Ryan Johnson and Leon Hudson talk about!!!!!

Heads by INDIO MOTOR MACHINE; IMM.
CP Pistons, PC Carbs.

It all sounds great to me. I am fixing to post my Brodix for sale and would love to be able to run a W-5 setup.

Sounds like a very logical marketing plan. There was a W5 top end for sale at the Woodburn Mopar meet last weekend. The guy wanted $3500 for ported heads with 1.6 Erson rockers and a 4500 flanged MP manifold. Nice looking setup.
If MP won't do it maybe they'll sell you the core boxes! Make some changes to them and get into the head business. You'll probably need to raise $100K in cash or so to get it going but I bet you could make it fly. If you do one thing really well the guys will beat a path to your door.
I agree, i would'nt count on MP, I'd like to see the W5 agin, are the W7 still in production or is that a completely differnt animal?
