I'm not quite sure how we got to this point, but if you look at the first post in this thread, you'll see that the target price mentioned by Classic Inlines for their cylinder head and intake manifold combination is $1500-$1600. Yes, the Deppe head costs more, but it's also a race-only head, unless I'm misinformed about that. And Classic Inlines has been making and selling aluminum heads for Ford engines for a while, so their production machinery and processes are already in place. All they need to do to produce a Chevy head is to change the casting molds and load the program for the CNC machining, which is a lot less expensive than starting from scratch. And what DOES a Deppe head cost nowdays?
