Default Re: Jones Head - Racers Only

Erik,
I have a question maybe two.
When "Jones engine development" woke up that morning and said I'm going to create a head that will level the playing field in S/S. What did he have in mind?
Did you go into it saying I'm going to keep all the same issues the current heads have had for the past 50 years? Such as areas.
When you made your core boxes for your head did you have the sizes and shapes of a modern s/s port in mind and put the water accordingly?
If I was getting ready to spend that kind of money I sure would of had to have that in the back of my mind.
Erik in no way am I getting on here to try to belittle you. The form was just opened up to try to clear up some questions for everyone.
I understand that there are other heads approved. And if they do it for them they should do it for Jones development Manufacturing.
I'm sure your spacing and angles are correct I wouldn't question that for a minute!
But all the other heads Alum and cast other than the" 2nd dart head" were as cast port heads that the manufacturer came up with as a replacement to put on your street car. Rather than spending money on old iron. And put the water jackets in them accordingly.
I'm sure you have worked on your fair share of these aftermarket heads. And you would have to admit you run into the same issues as a stock head.
I'm in no way saying that starting with a clean sheet of paper wouldn't be nice but I think this might not be the place to do it. I wish you all the best and hope you get the reward for all your hard work you have put into this.
Just my thoughts
