    Re: simplest 16 valve head swap

    RDI bought and buys all the Masi stuff he can get his hands on for the most part. He bought all of Mopars old stock and sold it off. Last I heard he has zero NOS heads anymore. Yes he makes some nice cash but works hard for it. He called me at 11:30pm his time the other night to discuss what I wanted done to my head. He had just finished up working. Poor guy. But he's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. Hopefully one day I'll be able talk to him without it being over the phone or email.

Even a motor with 0 compression in one hole is a $3500. prospect
    Thats why I'd stick with a TIII, you can buy a car for less than that, not that I recommend you do that,

    Come on now Masi Heads are not that rare. I have a masi head in the closet with a set of pistons. I should hurry up and sell it to someone who actually intends to use it. LOL.

    2.3 is a typo, Dodge never sold a 2.3 turbo engine to the public.

    That 2.3 Masi motor that B&G has is a custom Naturallly Aspirated motor. Sky high compression and big cams to get to 300 HP with no turbo...

    Well maybe your Ebay reserve was too ambitious Or that head wouldn't still be in your closet... I had bids on a few of your lots from that motor...
