    I have a 1988 RD brochure with a picture of the head. I could scan it on Thursday.

      Lots of inbreeding goes on in that industry.

          I had RD springs on my car and I believe there still on the car which is now MR325's trailer.

              Have you ever heard of a process called casting?

                    it would be bad ass to have a milled head

                    but seriously if someone can find one, must have it reproduced

                      we need to find one and rent it from whoever owns it to blueprint it for reproduction.

                        Reproduction by sweaty 12-year-old Thai boys? Or a legit machine shop?

                        There's going to be a huge price difference there.

                          No. legit reproduction. Who wants a 24v head that's going to make your motor pop due to low cost reproduction methods?

                          If there was ever a time to get something produced in the US, it's now. What team are you on?

                                OT, but calloway also built a turbo kit similar to that on the 745i. It was pretty much as close as you could get in the US without importing. I know a guy with one on an e23 with just 24k miles on it.
