Hey,
I thought the general consensus was the best heads for the small
(3.5") bore was the Olds 215 jobbies with big valves. Oh, hit a swap
meet this weekend. Picked up an extra copy of the March 85 Hot Rod
mag. Also got an issue of Sportscar Graphic from '66 with some
pictures and a short article on the Repco-Brabham SOHC Olds 215.
Kinda knarly lookin' thing it was. In 3litre form it was putting out
300hp.

Hey Wil, did you migrate over to the list I take it? good!
Do you have an update on the use of 300 heads atop the small bore?
I don't want to weld it up and mill it unless absolutely necessary.
I just got a new MIG unit - a Miller, no less. But I don't think it's
gonna take anything less then a Tig to weld it up.. (BTW, my old,
Italian-made MIG is up for grabs:).
And what about the valve geom(?) problems? did you break anymore
springs?
Also, does anybody have a loose (i.e. not in a motor:) D+D rear seal
adaptor to look at?
thx
Jan
