The Plymouth Weslake DOHC Motor from the 60's
There was no intake for the W2 BB heads so one had to be converted to work.
I suppose using an adapted STR was probably a bad choice as it has several known faults!
The Weslake STR was painted 'orange' and it got polished for a street car set-up back in the 80's here in the UK.
With a 1969 only 'sand cast' Dominator fitted it was only ever gonna be a track set-up for high speed ovals (possibly)?
All the research paperwork was lost when Weslake was closed down.
Not seen as important back then, so used for 'fire-lighting' on cold winters nights lol...:soapbox::BangHead::realcrazy:
Bottom picture shows the original Weslake porting plate laid over a SB W2 gasket for comparison.
