Pm me please. Thanks.

After consulting multiple professional reverse engineering people, because of money I will have to figure out for myself the painstaking process of recreating the scan data of the head into something usable for a foundry to cast. Will update in a year or so when the model is complete, haha.

Can you source or know people that have a 426 block or multiple?

Its possible to get some. There is a guy who has em and will have to give him a call to see if he can dig them out.
