Not yet Daz,

I bought some Buick300 heads then these came up the next day typical..lol

But a worked set of Buick300 heads should outflow any rover head and you can fit 1.775 inlets and 1.5 Exhaust so going for this. The ports are much bigger as standard as well. Shouldnt have any problems then :-)

There from the american buick engine I think biglaugh

For one year only believe 1963 or 4 they came with aluminimum heads that bolt straight up to rovers. They have bigger ports as standard and bigger combustion chambers perfect for forced induction.

They are rare as rocking horse poo especially in good condition.

Can flow big numbers a fully worked set will be fantastic, thats the plan smile
