With the post 1971 Smog Regulations, you'd have a good flowing head with small smog cam. Sorta like a mid 70's Ford Cleveland.

Yes, I realize it's not a production W-2 head. I wonder if it's a early W-2 with leftover crossover or something closer to the LRE development (pre '78-79) with an added crossover. There were all kinds of SB development castings floating around. Square port W-2, "Petty" castings, W-3, W-2-1/2...

Is this a W-2 head with heat crossover? It’s a picture from an early Larry Atherton Mopar Small Block book

I'd have to look more to see if there is any reference to a W-2 with heat crossover in Bob Tarozzi's notebooks. Is W-1 a T/A head? It’s seems like the W-2 design waited around before being available for sale. The stuff below sounds like W-2 was well developed by May 1973. I have W-2-1/2 and...

No. 235/60/15 will not fit with 15x7 and 3.5" backspacing. I don't think the 215/65/15 with 3.5" bksp will fit either. Maybe a 205/60/15 with 3.5" bksp. What are the rim specs on the 205/70/14 combination you have now? 225/60/15 with 15x7 and 4.25" backspacing may work. I fit 245/60/15 with...

Sounds like your new rear springs are a little lower than expected. I would just leave ride height alone. doesn't sound or look bad to me.

.92" torsion bars will help. Do the tops of the rear wheel lips measure lower then the fronts? Probably would not lower front more. Or you can run these shorter bump stops...

Since it points upward to the centerlink, IF it was an A-body Idler, it would be a 73-76 A-body. Do you have a known E/B body one? They are similar and this one didn't match a E/B body, then you could eliminate that possibility.

While you are putting it all away, take a quick cell phone picture of every item. In addition, If possible fill in a spread sheet for the item too. But nowadays taking a picture is quicker, so you can make that first priority. Just like the simple quick pics like you posted above. One per item...

My front bottom fender lips are bent back. Lips on top rolled, fender supports pushed out. 245/50/15 on 15x9 rims with 4.125" backspace

225/60/15 will probably fit with 15x7 rims with 4.25 backspacing up front If you really want to autocross, you should look into 17" or 18" that you can get good tires for.

Still need a stock outside appearing Small Block aluminum head like the 440 Source big block heads. Could be the same as the current Speedmaster. Just change the outside casting and front and rear of head w/core plug.
