These cylinder heads were developed a few years back and made it into the
Ford Motorsport catalog. When they were outlawed by NASCAR, they were
quietly dropped, though a batch had already been cast. I saw a stack of
them for sale a couple years back at the Columbus swap. According to the
Motorsport catalog, nothing was compatible with production parts. Required
special rocker arms, valves, intake, exhaust, pistons, pushrods, etc.
I think even a special block (perhaps the lifter spacing is different) was
listed. If you notice, the port layout pairs the intakes so that the
runners
are more equal in length than the equal spacing of small block Fords.
