Default Re: A gift from Ford for the lower classes @235hp

The "beauty" of a CNC head is the part can be easily verified once it's in the field. The rest of the package is obviously open for debate.

Jeff, that's true but Ford would need to supply their CNC data so that the $500K checking equipment that NHRA would have to own could check them properly. The guys that really want to go fast would weld up a set of scap heads, hand port them any shape they want to get them flowing nice on the bench, read the port data into one of those 500K machines, and then CNC port a new set. The correct CC would be easy too. This engine should be SS only with ported heads.

I guess that the same could be said for checking all heads for Stock Eliminator!
