I Might Have Found Something Pretty Cool.....

Following just for the cool factor

Did you lay a head gasket on it for the heck of it and make sure all the water passages and such were the same as a "normal" one? (I'm not familiar enough with the inside of a slant to tell from the pics) they probably are. Just one of the first things I would have done for my own sanity lol.

Yup. Sho nuff. The head is different, though. It's thicker than any of the other heads I have here. I surmise that was on purpose, to keep the chamber the same volume as the open chamber heads, because it is the same size. There is a measurable difference in the chamber depth as a result of that. I'm glad it's the same size, too, because if it had been small by a good bit, I would have had to change over to the dished turbo style pistons to lower compression. As it is now, it will work well with what I have.
