Ted, It was a set of Rams horns for better Bucking.

As far as availability you will need to be patient, His CNC machine needs to be modified and souped up so he is waiting for parts on that. Also he is not a "caster" by trade, he is a machinist and he never dreamed he would be doing so many castings, so he works on his casting modifications at night at his house. He looks pretty booked up with head porting and engine builds during the day and I believe he even had to turn somebody down on the phone that wanted a set of G heads done while I was there, he is that busy.

Its pretty amazing with the economy crashing that this 50 year old engine is becoming so high in demand that people have to turn work down on it, I can't speak for Ted but I am sure with his expertise on the y's he is not lacking for work either.

Billy.  Thanks for the pics.  Was that bulge in your pants a cylinder head or something we don’t need to know about?

These heads are actually his first casting and he is just mocking them up and fine tuning things for the next cast. these will probably be melted back down.

Definitely cool!  When I saw the pic of the manifold I reached for the phone, until reading they werent machined yet.  Hate to keep bothering him.

Here it is guy's, I got my hands on the aluminum heads, In order to get them off Mummert had to call the police and put me in handcuffs, I just couldn't let go on my own.

I can't say how great of an adventure it was and such a great guy to chat with. It is amazing how he does so much work in the tight quarters he is confined in.

Heres a new intake he cast, yet to be machined. These will be nice additions to any Y.
