Don't stop there..how about twin cams, 4 valves per cylinder, 3.2 liters of
displacement and 330 hp for real power?  Oh, wait...I just designed the new
BMW M3 engine..sorry wrong list :-)

Subject: Aluminium '6 Heads

Would anyone know if they are available?

The reason I ask is that I haven't seen any if they are made.  And
considering you can purchase aluminium MGC heads I can't see why there
wouldn't be a market for aluminium heads for the GT6, TR-6, TR-5/250 and
associated saloon cars (Vitesse, 2000, 2500...).

The prices I've seen for the MG aluminium heads have had about $200 price
increase over a rebuilt head (including core).

How about aluminium blocks while we're at it?  ;-)
