Was that with a factory head, or one of his '12 port' heads (since Sissel sells a 12 port non cross flow Ally head for the 250 / 292)? Didn't Sissel used to make a 'cheater' head for the old chevy I6 (235/261). Looked stock on the outside, but was actually aluminum, and flowed quite a bit better? Could it be he snuck something like that by Hot Rod?

Cause a fellah that is as clever as he was, would never try and pull one over on somebody. ;\) (that's good natured sarcasm there)


My, what a steep learning curve. Erik II#5155
