Well, I have a feeling this will go the way of the Ritter blocks, alot of asking when are they coming out, and to show up on stage in front of a broke audience.
In most cases.

I just see expensive parts.
I hope not, and its great theres companies out there doing mopars favores and such. and you are correct the polly had canted heads.
I just know Ill never be able to afford them.
like I said I just like the good ol wedge design witch works.

Can't help but agree with you on that. Yes it is exciting to see a new part come our way, but when the cost is so high they are just going to be another piece for the high end guys. And no I'm not hating on the high end people either but It would just be nice to see something new be alittle less exoitc and more geared towards the grassroots racer

We are trying to use a stock rocker!
Whoa whoa whoa!!! Stock rockers on a small block mopar use a shaft design. A single shaft design. If I'm going to run a canted valve, spread port head, I sure as he!! won't be using stock rockers. For two reasons: One, stock rockers suck. Two, it's impossible to use a single shaft rocker setup on a canted valve engine. It seems you're throwing out a lot of hype without any real details.
I hope you'll forgive my skepticism, but I'm smelling something here and it ain't roses. I will happily eat my words later if this comes to fruition, but at least be honest. This will require a different intake manifold, different headers (which I know you already said), different rocker arms and different pistons. This will not be "cheap". It may be a relatively "cheap" way of making power, but I would rather it be labeled an alternative way of making power.
Ok, stepping off the soap box.

Mabey it will use stock magnum rockers or poly rockers. Mabey the valves will end up nearly straight up and down so they don't come close enough to flat top piston to need valve releifs. I am sure it will be expensive, no way around it when you can not use an existing cam, intake or headers. Mabey they can use a few stock items but a lot will need to be changed and the cost will add up. Probably end up being cheaper to just build an CNC ported eagle headed 400 inch new hemi.

never said it was a stock MOPAR rocker...my guess would be they're using chev geometry shaft mount rockers....
