hi All,
i have been looking around on the forum to find more info about these Merlin Cylinder Heads.
I`m thinking about ordering a pair, is the waiting list long from real steel?
i would like to fit a new cam and these heads to my 3.9

Isn't it time someone sent one of these to China and get them copied?

I sent my deposit in the beginning of June and am still waiting for a pair. So, if you want them be prepared to wait...

I once looked into getting a run of new improved buick 300 heads cast up. Cost per unit was ok subject to minimum order but the £18,000 they wanted to make the patterns put an end to the idea
