Maybe there was Clevelands in '64/'65, and I just had not seen one.
Were you racing, or even around then? LOL

Quote from a Ford guy on a car forum---Does the combustion chamber in the picture below look vaguely familiar? Its the combustion chamber of a mid-1950's Chrysler Poly Spherical canted valve head. The Chrysler Poly Spherical head was the first canted valve head, the one Chevy and Ford copied. The combustion chambers of the big block Chevy and the big block Ford don't resemble this too much, but the Cleveland is a dead ringer.
