Esslinger Head?

[8T6 SVO]

I got this head from Esslinger, but my Exhaust won't hook up to it? I think I'm going to have a hard time making the Intake work too.

Mike Fleming, do you have any ideas for me?

Pat_In_LA, where are we going to dinner?

Put it in your circle track car....that's what it's for..

Funny there is a thread at TF about the secretary there answering the phone and "taking orders"...

Darn good thing I'm not in Canada and the only Secretary at Esslinger that I know is Cary.

Maybe you can trade'm for one that will fit.

Isn't that the head that pulls about 2500 new?

What did you order from them? You rec'd an ARCA head, not the "d-port" head. How much you pay for it? Sell it on FeeBay and re-order a d-port head. Keep the extra $$.

Mike -

Screw the d-port head.

We still have a street race planned, don't we?

I had coupons for Burger King, but this may turn out to be a Damon's or Northwoods Inn ride.

HaHa!

Mike don't worry - Chris came by today with his new ARCA head, and I had to give you a jest. You still have me beat.....maybe?

Seriously,

The ports on the ARCA are unreal. Just plain bad a$$. Unbelievable what Esslinger has done this head flow.

Here is a picture of the iron head next to the ARCA.

Wow i can't say I've ever seen a steel head so clean and shiny..

[8T6 SVO]

I like the satin/felt (in red, of course) on the table.

In honor of you, no less. Your eloquence - that's what I like about you.

Wow i can't say I've ever seen a steel head so clean and shiny..

Me neither!:

By the end of next week end, my other motor should all back together!

[Rob Hughes]

Had to look twice to make sure it wasn't some kinda billet head or something..lol

Here is a picture of the iron head next to the ARCA.

Something looks familiar in that picture but I just cant make it out.... Who did the hack-job porting on that iron head? I'd try and get your money back.

looks a hellva lot better then my hack job of a porting on my head.

btw, boport, that avatar is beautiful.

back on topic, is the ARCA head any good for boosted applications? looks like you'd need a big dish piston to get anywhere near a boostable compression ratio.

Probably the same guy that did this one:

Bob, who did the hack-job on your ARCA head? Oh! the same Bauregard who did mine! - I get it.

Gotta love those ports - huh! I never really studied a ARCA head before, but wow, it is a pretty site. I can only imagine what it looks like after Bo got thru with it.

Alex L - I have heard that these heads work very well under boost and high RPM. Not your daily driver though.
