I have heads with combustion chambers smaller than those domes, make sure you put the recording close to the pipes when you fire it up and post it, I love the cackle of high compression engines.

No problem Bill, using good ARP head bolts, they should hold the heads in place. Now head gaskets might be another issue. Frank we may have to take some of that good Indiana corn and brew up some special racing fuel if prices keep going up. Like I said earlier, we will print all the engine specs after the dyno results. I have a potential date with Ted on 16 May to pick the engine up, and then we will all know what it will do. I will say, this engine is very similar to Ted's roadster engine.

Not alky Frank, but it sure ain't running on pump gas. When Ted told me what the C/R was I started looking at what it will take too install a tractor battery. We will give full details after the dyno runs. I am like a kid waiting on Christmas!Glenn, you may find the heads 2 blocks away on start up? Boy, what comp are you estimating and in what car use is the engine for? thanks, regards bill yyyy

Here are a couple of shots of Glen’s engine as it was going together. 
Wow! That's like Y-Block porn.
