Re: Miller heads

I picked up 4 sets of sand today for the new Miller Style heads, and had a discussion with a foundry about making these in production. It appears that I will be able to sell these for $425, and iron stock looking heads (low and high) for around $400. All heads 6.25:1 compression ratio.

Re: New headgaskets

Could an adequate head gasket be made from Graphite gasket sheet stock?

Re: Miller heads

Here is the second prototype sample. I have sand being made for 3 more samples. The first head ran well, so it is time to get a few more out for testing. I've been talking with my foundry about ways to cut costs, which will then be applied to any other heads I decide to make, like a low or high prof...

Miller heads

The new Miller heads will be making more progress soon. I will be making more castings with a view to having a couple of cars dyno tested. It would be helpful to know how many people are interested in one from the first run. The more castings I can buy, the less expensive the castings will be, which...

Re: Any news on the Miller head?

The Miller heads are still under way. I will be making a few more samples after the first one was run a while back. I have people who will be dyno- testing as well.
