Hi Guys, My brother bought a couple of A15 heads a while ago that had been modified including skimming the heads. There were no actual details on the compression ratio that was produced. I am now considering using one of them for a supercharged engine (I was previously going to use a non-modified he...

Anybody?

Now that just may work. Got any more pics?

thanks for the replies use a set up like the B110 1200 which had a junction into the bottom hose. Yeah that is what I was looking to do with the heater, utilizing a water temp gauge adapter. Are the water inlet and the block breather pipes steel? I presume I will need to weld a collar around it to k...
