Billet FE head.......Finally Done!

Well, after 8 years of hard work and a absurd amount of money, we have finally finshed our Billet Aluminum FE head. The programming is done and proven, the first heads have guides and seats, and a head had been sent to T&D to have rockers designed. Hopefully this will only take a few more weeks. A finished head will be at the PRI show this month. The next step for us is header flanges, intake flanges and a valley pan. These heads will require a sheet metal intake (for right now), custom headers, pistons, etc. They will accept stock valve covers (the bolt pattern is same as stock, we just dont know yet if the rockers will clear on a stock valve cover or not yet). We took great pains to digitize the top of the exhaust port to keep the stock "pentroof" look, along with a vertical exhaust bolt pattern. We are working out the pricing now, and should be ready to start selling them in the next few months. The price should be comparable to a billet SBF or SBC head, however because the intake plate is machined with the head (the part the pushrods go thru), the price will be accordingly higher.































Now for the good part. These are a radical departure from ANYTHING that a FE has had bolted on it before. They are a Canted valve head. The intake flows in the area of 470 CFM! To give you an idea of what kind of power they will make, 470 cfm SBF heads on a NA 430" motor make about 1100 hp. The same heads on a twin turbo 430" motor make upwards of 2800 hp. They fit 4.250 Bore and larger. The plug locations have been moved to a better spot, but they still keep stock looking angles, and the cylinders are paired like stock, it is not symmetrical. We had intended on running these in the Pro Nostalgia class in NSCA, but since they closed the doors last year, we will be running them in a Turbo charged version in either Auto pro mod or Outlaw 10.5.































I will post some pictures as soon as I can, but if you are planning to go to the PRI show, you will be able to see them in person. As soon as I am 100% sure on which booth they will be in, I will post it. If you have any questions, you can e-mail me. Brian_clayton2000@yahoo.com











I guess we will be finding out just how much power a Shelby block can stand! We had intended on having a billet block too, but after 2 deposits (and having to sue to get part of one of them back), we are out of time....maybe this will get Kirkhams going...hint...hint...























These heads are no pipe dream, they are done and ready for production. We will have a motor built as soon as the rockers are finished. While it will be a turbo charged engine, we just need to prove the valve train is stable, no hot spots in the water jackets, etc.
