Wtf were they thinking? Unless the flange on the header is 1/2" thick or something, how would that not leak?

Make it a 71... 66 cast heads.
@325 , not a bad combo
Run it slow for 6 mos. and get some hp off.. Shouldn't be a problem for you.

Right ..Sell the drivetrain, and you'd have a few grand in it, and you'd have a nice looking car to race. ;-)
