Very expensive heads. Pretty much same power gains as a nice street engine with a supercharger. Supercharger is cheaper. I looked into these heads several years ago and that was my conclusion, anyway.

Hot Rod or someone did a OHC to pushrod compare about a year or two ago on a SBC. Seeing that one off SOHC on that SBC was pretty cool. They found that they could enlarge the intake ports becaue the push rods weren't in the way. I think they used Toyota cam sprockets, and some other crazy stuff. Pretty cool.
