whats your budget on this?are you going to restore it?

thats a pretty good video telling the story of pre funny cars.inovation leads the way!

fyi think he is looking for one to buy.a nice one wont be cheap!

From an old Yellow Bullet post several years ago regarding AWA composites:

"I sent them an email and the response: $1200 per con rod, $1500 per piston, $315 per pushrod, $595 per lifter pair and $500 per rocker.... Definently a solution for someone with deep pockets and or max effort build goals."

Not quite cost effective for most folks.

funny,i remember ford tried compost rods in there 4 cyl race engine,in the 80s and as you can guess it didnt go well! deep pockets are a must here

i am a little late to this but i can tell you what i learned about porting boss heads.i sent my heads to kaase to have them and his intake ported,and they told me that they may not make more power with porting.i still did that and dont regret spending the money,but what i should have done was have a 2.450 intake valves installed instead!
that would add 100 hp over just porting and more airflow!ported,the intake port flowed 460,and as a 11.6 comp pump gas 557 it made 912 hp on dyno at 6900.still with the kaase 2.300 intake valve.but i now see adding bigger valves on these heads makes more hp.
kaase made 914 on unported boss heads with 10.0 comp on his 521 ci.
also,this article states that about porting.boss heads have a much better quality of flow entering the cylinder than most wedge heads.ford did a lot of research on swirl etc in the 60s to come up with this.its a good read.
