Ok, were going back to a two piece head, using existing bolt holes in the block. We'll be adding 7 additional head bolts.
This rocker assemble is based on the Hemi style head, and current location of where the pushrods would come through. The intake rockers are awfully short, and we may move the pushrod path.
This mockup is just an initial drawing. The rockers are 1:1, and will be changed.

I agree with you, and I've been blessed in that aspect! The people involved are all very good, very dedicated, and a fun bunch to work with!  Sam's about done on the cage, and it's looking great! He still needs to mount the seat. The gent in the pic is 6'2", and 270 lbs, to give you an idea of space.

Looks really good Flattie. Are you going to modify the seat to give the required helmet side support or are you going to build it into the cage?

Interested Bystander, I agree- Sam does outstanding work! Looks really good Flattie. Are you going to modify the seat to give the required helmet side support or are you going to build it into the cage?

Pete, the seat is a Kirkey, and we'll go with a Kirkey Head and Shoulder restraint kit. Sold the Graham Paige today, for funding, so the build will kick in high gear now!

Buddy,
If I send you my '29 roadster can you sell it? You have a knack for moving rolling stock that I am unable to duplicate.

I could sure try!
I'm still trying to convince my wife the 'she' needs your car! No luck so far though!

Buddy,
Send it where ever it goes. I've been waiting for those European dollars.
