I have an aluminum 12 port cross flow head being machined now from New Zealand for my 292. It was 10 years in R&D. It will cost less than 2 high performance V8 heads. Also the I6 lasts a long time between rebuilds due largely to the fact that you are shifting at 3500-3800 rpm's vs twice that in V8's. I know of a guy that has 8 seasons on his 292 @ 1000 HP without a rebuild. I will be keeping mine under 800 HP or so in race mode and 550 HP in street mode. They sound more like an airplane than a car. Expensive, yes. Trump expensive no. Super cool absolutely! More money than brains, that's a matter of priorities. I have no wife, kids or dept and have worked hard my whole life. So if I have 90K in my entire build so what. Have you priced new trucks lately? Which one do you think will be worth more in 10 years. By some peoples standards I have a lot of money but I didn't make it by being stupid. Just my $.02 worth. Thank you for your time.
