Re: 4v Heads

I'm kinda interested in a set of heads that Barry Grant showed at this years SEMA show.

Re: 4v Heads

Ahhh, nothing like talk of the magical Arao/Dominion 32V heads to put a smile on my puss. But I'm still waiting for somebody to actually get an engine running successfully with a set of those jobbies. 'Cause God knows I'm not that person...yet. They do make neat conversation pieces at cruise nights and car shows, though. I usually carry one of mine in my trunk for such occasions.

Re: 4v Heads

Has anybody ever got a set of these to run on a car yet. How come they are so hard to tune?

Re: 4v Heads

At $6000+ a set, you would think they would come with decent instructions.

You think he's kidding? Here's one of Bob's Dominions, with Bob's very own size 12's in the upper left hand corner..... I'd post the photo of Bob holding one of the valve covers, but AOL has asked me not to scare people like that.....

Awww, come on. That picture is a classic now!!!

Unstable Bob, weren't you pretty close to having your motor finished with the Arao heads, but someone stole your custom intake???


It's funny how this topic surfaces from time to time.

I mix up Bobby and UB a lot myself since they look very similar.
