I don't have any idea. I ordered in several of the recommened "thin" head gaskets when I first got the head . It set in a cabinet a couple of year then I got to checking it & found the chambers are pretty small going by some of the numbers I've seen posted .
I guess when I get ready to use it I'll just order in a couple of the thick fel pro head gaskets & maybe drop the comp some .
I don' need or want it all jacked up running the Paxton on the 200 .
"Calling all cars, calling all cars" pop^*#, crackle@*# "1 Adam 12 this is base. Did you get more'n those 2, 3 in the registry yet? <over>"Will get to work on that registry thing.

Is there any time line for this as it seems that the wait time has been over two years without any production on the horizon.
I only wish you good luck as this is not easy to fine the right foundry and machining of the raw casting as well as valve, spring, retainers etc.
Any update on this?

For what it's worth to anyone looking for a unicorn head .
Check the Vintage 6 Mustang facebook site . He can get the 221 head from Argentina. Susposed to flow better than the VI or CI heads. He also does some group buys on a Ford Raceing finned alumn valve cover . Jose is a stand up guy . He is most definetley no scammer .
Contact the administers of the site about him .
They are Aron Cox & Danny Stuckey. Aron has one of the 221 heads & Danny is running a vi head I think .
These items are made allready .

I would be interested. Selling the complete assembly? How much are you asking? Thank you!
Not familiar with "Mike". I bought mine from Will McLearran at Classic Inlines. I paid $2200 for it in 2016, including the 2 bbl intake and a set of the studs. At the time Will said that it was the last assembled head in stock. I've never installed it (or even unpacked it) - still sits on a shelf in my garage. I really should get around to that one of these days, I suppose. I don't know if there's a number on it - never looked.
things getting mixed here?
I should not have mentioned both? (the 1."lrg log” AND 2.“alu" Mike came up with. That the thread is about)?
love ta get that #, John, entered into the lill register we’re creating for the "CI alloy head”.
