Still don't know why 440 4bbl cast iron head has so much attention. What I see there are about 5 cars total. They surely don't dominate in B, C or D. The others are running Aluminum heads. Way out of my league to afford. personally I didn't want to have to run one with my 45lbs heavy weight break. It did seem foolish that aluminum head engine was getting a better break. has this combination received any extras over the years that I missed? I could use some. My 340 that is sitting on the engine stand is laughing at me.

Charlies car was a 1969 Dart with 440/375. He had to use a 906 style head in Stock. BTW he did set the B/SA record.
In my 1968 (or 69) we can use a different cast iron head in Super Stock that is not legal in stock.
