Jake,

What is there about these steel cylinders that keeps them
from having "Acceleration properties".?

What would prohibit their use in an automotive application?

Jake was talking about the heads specifically.
Port design and valve size would likely to be tailored to provide specific advantages at a particular cruising RPM. An engine designed for specific applications would not likely do well in another specific application. Just compare 1/4 mile engines with sprint car engines with endurance car engines.
