I think it's an XE head, but it would be best to wait for Howard to confirm.what model ford is it again? EB or earlier?

The $4K figure includes a custom alloy rocker cover to clear any rocker setup It also includes the EFI manifold and butterflies. Effectively you are paying around $2K for the head, or $800 more than a stock cast iron new YT 12 port head.Jzed heads appear to be ok but at $4000+ its a lot of money.
Colin, the JZED head is cast from scratch, it isn't a modified head.
Howard, for what you are likely to pay for a Ford head and the modifications at todays prices, I would rather get something new off the shelf that has a proven 7.7 second capability. If you can successfully demonstrate to me that a modified Ford head would go quicker, then I would be interested.

The Honda head conversion has proved to be reliable and low maintenance over more than 7.7 seconds......
The sports sedan running this combo can be seen at Sandown next weekend.
They will be in garage 27 and its races are at 10.00am and 2.00pm on Saturday and Sunday respectively.
There will also be a detailed article soon in Racer Australia magazine.
