    WOW, I am very very very very intrigued. Keep us all posted. What ever the amount you guys are thinking of producing.... triple it. I think these will go like hot cakes! I'm very impressed.

    It is based off a 371 so on a 371 block a 371 manifold
    If used on a 324 a 324 manifold while fit,Im sure you know the difference is in deck height
    If used on a 394 a little custom work is needed
    All instuctions and puzzle pieces will be given

    same with exhaust side 324-371 standard bolt pattern,You could put stock manifolds on with some minor matching,But arent pipes nicer?

    These heads will work with stock rocker ***emblies,If you really want to put those grubby things on there.

    More to come

    Really nice looking castings and should help out a lot of rodders. There are many old style engines out there than has no speed parts available so this is a good start.

    You know the old saying about no good deed going unpunished? I can see some poser with Olds valve covers on his SBC talling you that your Olds is a Chevy because of the four exhaust ports. (Yes, even though the plugs are in the 'right' place!)

    Really nice work, congratulations!!!

    [So on a 303? a 303 manifold? or what?]

    Block height is the same on 303 as the 324
    You can use a 303 manifold but some need modified because they dont cover larger ports,not just mine but any later head
    Many an Edmunds manifold I have welded the top edge and blended and reblasted so it looks untouched

    Cool, so my dual 4 Offy intake will work with a little love?

    Can't wait for the prices, so I know how much to sell my soul for:D

    I allready leased it out to Batten for a set of their heads for my 425...I love cool Olds parts.

    Whatever Tony makes is top notch and BAD***, I have his Bellhousing/flywheel setup for Early Olds to muncie, and the quality is awesome!! Highly recommended.

    Heads look great.

    The plan is to have them on the shelf
    As far as limited number run, I have to say as long is there is a demand
    we will have them,How long that is I really dont know

    If you would have asked me a year ago if this project was going to happen I would have had a different answer

    But hey its happening now so lets run with it
    With this addition and all the other new internals [and external stuff] we do you dont need much of an orginal engine to start with

    When this is finished what should the next piece be?

    Tony
