HEY! 140-160

Yes, it is our Street Performance Head which I do consider to be comparatively
"mildly" ported. It has port work in the right areas without enlarging the ports - much different from our race head that costs twice as much. The aim in the street performance head is to target only those areas where the head really needs improvement for a street engine. We are working on a new head casting with reshaped ports which would support significant additional power improvement. For this to become a reality there will have to be a great deal of serious interest - defined as people being willing to contribute to the development cost.

The website will soon feature a Street Performance Tuning Kit that will consist of this head, matching cam, and 2 1/2 inch mandrel bent exhaust system. It will be good for 150 HP with SU carbs, a little more with sidedraft webers or FI with a programable aftermarket ECU.
