Good to know, Mark. I had a phone call with Stan yesterday and laid out my thoughts and possible advantages... Glad you guys got together in Tulsa.

Best,

You can tell if a head has been angle milled by measuring with a caliper from deck surface to valve cover machined mounting surface, for the manifold side and then the spark plug side. The measurements will be within a few thou if it has been flat milled, but different if angle milled.
