That's the one...Thanks Jeff....

...I am seeking anyone that might have the hemi heads and are missing the intake....I hear the General made 12 extra heads and possibly only the three intakes that came on the three experimental motors...Don't know how true that is though, because I did find and buy a "hemi" top plate at one point, which is slightly different than the "production" x-ram top plate. So I assume there is a bottom somewhere on someone's shelf in a garage and they just have no clue what it might fit....a needle in a haystack???
At the time I inquired about this a few years ago, my biggest problem was finding a sample to use for a mold. One person that had a few at the time clearly did not want me making them because his would be less valuable...I have some real decent pics of the top and bottom somewhere with the top plate off. I think it is on Guinn's website.

..also heard there is a complete hemi 302 motor with a converted Boss 302 injection set-up...??

..I know Rick's was sold, but who owns all his x-ram stuff now?? Did that all go with the business?? They had that 'hemi' silver Z a few years ago too....I know he had an extra pair of heads..and possibly an intake to use as a sample...anyone know?

Thanks all... Max

I often wonder where gm got the idea for the nascar SB2 heads Sometimes new ideas are not as new as you may think

First gen SB2 heads

I might have to build a SB2 first gen Z for the next project
