I love that. Custom DOHC cylinder heads for cars that came with single cam heads... awesome.

Did the guy making the DOHC L head off of a trio of KA24DE heads ever get anywhere?

I haven't seen anything in a while, i'll find some pictures and post them up. As far as I know he's still working on it. Problem with the OS Giken head is that the cast was made of wood, so over time it warped and cant be used anymore.

If, Someone can get a hold of the machined head. A good foundry can reverse engineer the finished product into a casting blueprint. Also, The wooden pattern is due to the 'sand' cast process. If, You wanted to hold tighter tolerances. You would need to spend the money to go investment casting. Which, Uses an aluminum pattern. Unfortunately, Much more expensive for the latter.

Very few of the heads exist anymore and are extremely expensive to acquire now ($20,000+).
