    What's the deal on casting stuff after you have the patterns made? you say there are only three. Is there a pattern around that could be used to make more castings? Same question for the Dodge four flathead.

    3? You've got one, that leaves two more. I want one!

    How about a picture of the chamber side?

    Would you rent out the pattern for the flathead? Is that even possable if you wanted to? Then someone could take it to a foundry and cast there own paying you a royality of sorts but hopefully not using up your time.

    Sad news.We had a small fire last night at the founry.The patterns for the head were destroyed.They where nexted to an old shoe factory.And they lost a 100 souls in the fire.Our hearts are with them.
    We're lucky, managed to save the 3 heads.
