anybody make performance head?

hey, I'm in no position to build up the engine right now but for future reference I'm curious. Does anybody make a performance head for the 300I6? I'm guessing the answer is no but I thought I'd ask anyway.

There is a head built called the "FS1" and is sold on ebay i think. A guy over on fordsix took some chevy LS1 heads, cut and welded them and made a head for the big six. The only problem with these is they require custom manifolds.

Though they are some great looking work, thats about the only problem with them.

As memory serves...

the "FS1" head is not a streetable app. Something about the water journals not matching.

There was only one FS1 head ever built. The guy that built it has a shop over by where I live. I doubt it's a very good return on your investment.

The clifford head is nothing more than a ported and rebuilt stocker.
