Nice job of fitting it all in there with unique rocker arms.

Those are big valves- not a lot of room for quench. Might be more efficient with smaller valves.

It's a drag head, not sure about long term reliability.

Note the welding in the cylinder head. And, the rocker arms are formed from stock parts that are cut and sectioned and welded... Thats a lot of weld on those rocker arms. That will increase the valvetrain mass and the spring force needed to control them...
