Early Rocket speedparts,Did you ever think you'd see this?

I'm getting ready to plant flowers in my 348 and get me an early Oldsmobile, just so I can snag me a set of them heads - absolutely stunning.

Those are works of art! It's great you've got all that modern engineering in an original looking casting...not all billet looking!

Hey Tony, with these heads, can original valve covers be used?

 

Yes original covers can be used,They have a .250 raised cover rail to keep oil from running down the side of your engine when covers are off.
This will also help with running adjustable rockers, high lift cam and stock covers

Next peice should be a website...

A few different intakes? 2x4? 4x2? 3x2? 6x2? 8x2? a nice single 4, high rise 2x4? 2x4 Cross Ram (so I don't have to make one)? and then some fuel injection set ups would be sweet too.

 

nice work.
make sure DON_WOW gets the 1st set.

 

Yeah that was my question. I wounder how much you would have to change the patterns to fit on a Cad or would it just be in the machining? Or maybe even a Studebaker?

 

Tony, the next part might be the front cover for 49 to 62 blocks. It could be a direct copy and not take any extra effort to engineer plus alum water pump could be an idea. Nothing fancy with fins , just a easy way to get some weight off. Thank you for wanting input to improve an icon of hot rodding.

 

really really cool

 

tony you are the man!!! I need those heads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! send three sets to germany

 

It's great to see someone putting the effort into the early Olds stuff. Thanks. The aluminum single four barrel setup, and a nice set of headers would be my next wish.

 

Hello Tony:
Like I said before........awesome!
Looking closer at your picture of the heads, I see there is no exhaust port cross over to heat and equalize the intake manifold. Are these heads more just for racing? Without the heat on the maifold how will these head be just for street use? Also will need a manual choke correct?

 

They are a performance head that can be used on the street
The cross over is not needed,I also wanted 8 exhaust ports doing the same thing
Yes you would need an electric choke If your using one

Tony

 

Hmm I didn't even notice the blocked off heat riser..another cool deal.

 

To be done right a new pattern would be needed

Tony

 

You must be doing something right, Yorgatron and even Don Wow have have come out of hibernation. Keep up the good work.

 

i want 2 pairs

 

tony, tell us when they are ready to ship!

 

Will do

Tony please put my name down, and be sure and pm me when you have $$ sorted. What time frame are you working to? Couple-a- months, A year?

 

Time frame I hope is in the weeks catagory,Damn day to day work getting in the way

Tony

 

Man, the guy I bought the car from just had the engine fully rebuilt too. The numbered heads are off the motor too. Guess I'll just wait.

Personally, a set of headers would be really nice. Even a set of shorty's that would be more universal would suffice.

 

if i cared about matching numbers i wouldnt be into hotrods

oldsmobiles need speedparts to be really fun
stock intakes weigh to much anyhow, it craves alloy intakes!!!

and heck aluminium heads

 

Hows this?

Tony

 

Very cool, now only if that had one more 4brl hole on it...

 

That's a work of art Tony !!!! When is it going to be available, and do you have a price yet ?

 

Your killing me,
Tony

 

That's about the coolest thing I've seen this week. Great Job...can't wait

 

Wow

 

MLS head gaskets to go with aluminum heads
