Lynn, your post was spot on about the AHFS. And as you said 600 ain't nothing. I just wanted to quote the above line to show how bogus the combustion chamber rule is. Heads are routinely welded and reshaped, material removed from the chamber itself. It all flies thru tech. The head shops quote and advertise it. And aluminum would make it much easier to hide, not that a good cast iron welder can't already do that on old heads. Everytime that something is allowed it is because some group is already doing it and instead of a vacation we all get a rule change/revision.
On the BBC aluminum replacement we did the guides and a comp valve job and back to backed steel and aluminum. Suffice it to say: Does anyone know who did the R&D for the Chev. replacement heads?
