Does anyone know of a US based retailer that sells the 1.8 liter APC heads, the new castings?

Don't know about 1.8 APC but do know 2.0 AMC are available at a lot of places. DRD Racing heads has the 2.0 with or without customizing options.

I am also curious who can get the NEW castings other than Jake.
I have a hard time believing that he has his own 'exclusive' supplier that only provides them to him. Stu |

Plenty of retailers out there that sell new amc castings. Not so many folks out there who replace the garbage they pass off as seats, guides, valves and retainers.

Yeah, I re-read the whole write-up on Jake's site.
I see now that the castings are readily available as new, but Jake does a LOT of stuff to them after he gets em. Stu |

Actually Len does it for me... We developed the program closely together, you can only get those bad boys from me :-)

do you sell just the new heads with no work done on them?
if so, what would be the cost? looking for four heads. Rich |
