Yes, Bob, I absolutely think the 194 head is a very viable cylinder head. On all of Cotton's race engines, that is the only head we used. But, it is difficult to test and be objective when trying to compare engines and components that are being used on a scale smaller than what I am used to seeing. I think that its only when the 194 head is taken to the higher levels of modification, that it really starts to excel. And when used in the types of street engines that we tested, with only having modest and minimal tricks and bells and whistle done to both style heads, it shows to be fairly equal to the large chamber head, in comparison. But for a very serious high HP or all out race engine, I believe the 194 head would be the way to go hands down. We wanted to put a 9 to 9.5:1 compression limit on our testing to have a true pump gas style engine, I think that others are also having trouble putting this testing into perspective as well, and are thinking of the potential a highly modified 194 race head has, and not looking at one that is only mildly modified with basic procedures that the average Joe is going to do, and when the 194 head is used at this level of preparation, it has shown only to have nominal gains, if any compared to the large chamber head.
