Re: [318poly] 472 Poly?

Travis,

For me, the “profit”, if there is any, was not an incentive. My incentive was the “need” for us Polyheads to have a modern/superior performance & affordable intake manifold for our Poly engines. My cursory investigation re: New Poly HP Aluminum Heads says this project will be considerably more expensive but I think between Javier Vasquez and myself we will be able to engineer an effectively powerful set of New Poly heads and if we have enough willing “pre-order” participants from our Mail Lists...then it will be a viable project to embark upon. However, first things first; I will need to do the groundwork on design, portability between Poly & LA blocks, and cost projections. After my research I will inform our “Polyheads” on the findings.

This is on my list of things “to do” when I visit the foundry this coming week.

My business sense is telling me these heads may be the more profitable venture.

If all goes well with the intake manifold project then I will explore the aluminum Poly head project...sure, aluminum Poly blocks would be nice but I hope to create the New Poly Alum. head so it will bolt on to the LA small block which solves the extreme expense problem of casting a dedicated Poly alum. block along with other advantages.

I have been in contact with Javier Vasquez of Foundry Works Inc. in Bell Gardens, CA and plan to spend this coming Wed. working on the finishing touches to the New Poly Wind Tunnel manifold. I suggested we change the name and description of this superior intake from an air gap design to a Wind Tunnel because that is what it is – huge airflow under & over the plenum and runners compared to the poplular Edelbrock small air circulation design rightly called the Air Gap. This design will radically cool the air/fuel charge and enhance torque & throttle response.

If anyone has “missed” the $399 introductory price for our New Poly Wind Tunnel manifold please send me an e-mail “off-line” at glpavlovich@xxxxxxx and I will see about extending the low pre-order price for you as I don’t think Roland has met the 100 manifold threshold as yet.

Thank you,

Gary Pavlovich

You can buy an aluminum R-5 race block from some companies and then you would be able to get 440 cubic inches or more.

I'm just playing with the idea. I'm already building a 392 stroker. All aluminium poly is something we all would like to see someday.
