Well found!

That's a very nice picture of an Aleaxander 7 port head.

Hi Ted,

I’ve often wondered why you don’t see SU’s used up front on cross flow heads, big bonnet holes I guess.

More or less all the heads I know about have been sold now. The one Mike has could be a good buy & if you need the engineering drawings to make the rockers I happen to have a full set.

I don't know of any heads avail;able for sale at the moment though.
