Not a Chrysler or an Ardun, those are very limited production Leo Lyons heads for SBC.

 

You beat me to it.

 

That is correct.

 

I understand that Leo made several different shapes and sizes that didn't cross fit.

One day, long ago, about a mile from my home (and Leo's garage), I saw a very beautiful dragster with a set of them parked on a front lawn here in San Bernardino. I never saw it run, but whenever that was, I wasn't active in drag racing. Anyone remember that car?

 

The car may have been this one- painted yellow and it was lettered for Babbit & Lyons.

I think Leo only had one head casting, but there were at least two different valve covers.

Intake manifolds offered were a 6-2, Hilborn injection and the 6-71
