biosurfer1,
Last I heard, Len was using the new AMC castings. He does machine work on them to get them to his specs, and ditches all the inferior hardware that comes with them and replaces them with better valves, guides, springs and keepers. Mike |

Len Hoffman and Jake Raby definately have set the standard for Performanc heads ,Type IV engine research and development and great guys to boot! In my book They are the Best. I'm on a pretty strict budget so...I've been doing alot of research on heads and rebuilding and I came across this company that I had not heard anyone on this forum mention. It looks like the L5 and L6 new casting heads from DRD Racing are not just stock castings but reworked and machined for performanced NEW casting heads at a competitive price. Who are these people? Nice web site! Are they for real? I don't recall anyone mentioning their name before on this or some of the other Type IV forums.
