Hi,

Some info on these heads based on what I've seen in person - anyone notice the lack of rocker box support underneath? This is only prevalent on the Type 1 design. The Type 4s are better off. Put any real pressures on these and they'll leak a ton. The only fix is to modify them to accept mounting opposite of the chambers, like at the top of the head. Stay away from these until Remmele redesigns them. Yes, they're billet and billet is stronger, but not strong enough to seal combustion.
