Very expensive heads. Pretty much same power gains as a nice street engine with a supercharger. Supercharger is cheaper. I looked into these heads several years ago and that was my conclusion, anyway.

Hot Rod or someone did a OHC to pushrod compare about a year or two ago on a SBC. Seeing that one off SOHC on that SBC was pretty cool. They found that they could enlarge the intake ports becaue the push rods weren't in the way. I think they used Toyota cam sprockets, and some other crazy stuff. Pretty cool.

It was the July Issue of 1999.

I know 'cause that's what I bought in the Gift Shop at the Hospital the day my son was born.

I've kept that issue just for Keep-Sake reasons.

About F***ing time chevy got some 4v heads. Ford had 4v heads on 289s and such in the 60s. More valves = more power.
