W7 INFO

Thanks, I would decline but I think you should post it for the forum. I have seen the heads up close. FWIW, I hang out with smokindust when I can. He lives close by.

You said milled rocker stands and IMO and what I have read, the W5 would qualify for that regardless of what Jesel or TD would have you do to the head. (Which I knew about, but a good mention it is!) it is actually what I want to do.

Time will tell, the wallet is boss & dictates.

At what area of spring pressure is the weak area of the head at risk? Your the first to say this.

In that bottom picture you have a good shot of the rocker block mount. When you mill that off far enough to get a Jesel or T&D system in there, it's very weak. That's one reason why I kept on working with the Chrysler system, as I'd seen some failures with the spring loads and RPM I was using when milling them down.

I'll go out in a bit and take a picture of the W7 mounts and you can see the difference.

Not many bracket guys were shifting at 85-8800 with 340 on the seat. I'm the odd duck.
