Tom,
Barry Kaplan could sure make a 1/2 engine run and I believe Freddy does pretty good too.



I agree, but those two run or ran, that weird yellow stuff that smells funny and makes my eyes burn.  :-D

I love the USA. How much longer will we be a free nation?

Asking questions is one's only way of getting answers.

The rational person lets verified facts form or modify his opinion.  The ideologue ignores verified facts which don't fit his preconceived opinions.

Mike,

OEM Chevy head had three straight intake ports.

Rich, it is my understanding that the Howard GMC head was designed by Howard Johansen using the Chevy angled ports. Not a use of the Wayne patterns.

Funny story from Nick Arias, he claims that a few years after Wayne Horning and my father split he asked Horning why didn't he design his GMC head with angled ports. Wayne's answer "too stupid".

Funny indeed, Kinda like Enzo saying aerodynamics were for people who can't build engines.
