Mark, this has just been posted elsewhere. Ian Richardson does his own castings so they are not rover castings. They are a big improvement over rover heads and I am sure that they replicate buick grand national turbo heads in some ways. They bolt straight on but you will have to buy an intake manifold to suit and obtain suitable headers. Also, find out if they are in stock or if there is a waiting period.

Mike, sorry saw the post suffering from brain fade. How is you 5.7 chimaera conversion doing any news yet?

Hi Mark, there's a problem getting it up here on a trailor so I'm still waiting for it, doh! I'm in Nottingham and the car's in Yately or the Sandhurst area. I'm hoping the owner can sort this out himself and bring it here. I'm not charging him for the labour on this project. Anybody down there want to pick up a Tivv. I'm about to pattern up a T5 to LS1 bell housing so for lesser powered engines the T5 should be a cheaper alternative to the T56 plus it's stock on a lot of Tivvs. My new intakes will be ready soon also.
