Can anyone provide a pic of a Stage V head - showing the end of the end (end without alternator bosses), and the top of the head zooming in to the intake runners?

Looking to see what casting marks are there, and if they indeed have part numbers cast in.

There should be good pictures in the old DC or Mopar catalogs. They marketed those heads heavily when they first came out.

The casting mark for stage 4 and 5 heads is a triangle.

Heads I have do not have part numbers cast in. A friend sent pics of his new Stage 4’s and they do have part numbers.

So wondering if the 5’s were shipped w/o casting numbers. Strange.

If your wanting to improve your engines performance you can do a lot better with some other brand aluminum heads, both the Stage 4 and stage 5 didn't flow much air down whiney scope

I am trying to sell them. These flow over 300, not great, not bad either.

Thanks for the suggestion but I never trust parts catalogs.

Here is an early Stage 5 picture from a catalog.

I’ve had a few sets of stage 5’s in the shop over the years.
They had casting numbers.

The “part number” is not the same as the “casting number”.

Look in theTech Archives.
Years ago both Dwayne (Fast68Plymough) and Best Machine were simultaneously porting a set of stage V's, One of those sets was for my 508 RB motor.

Casting number should be 4532287, I think sold these bare with stock valve seats for super stock, also sold them complete with 2.14 int and 1.81 ex and a ported version with the big valves. I'll try to post a pic of casting numbers

Thanks. Please also post a few pics of both ends of the head casting. I can’t imagine why anyone would remove casting numbers.

I ran them years and years ago on my Duster. Was a 470" BB ran 9.60's was back in the late early 2000's. Not really anything special, way better options out there for sure. I wanted to prove a point and had the heads already.

Definitely not a W2. Appears to be some sort of B1 variant.
