[Tigers] Hipo Heads

[Ron Fraser]

Howard
	The small block Ford heads all have exhaust ports that are 1.24" x
1.00".  Boss 302 has 2.00" x 1.74".
I only round port on a small block Ford head that I know of is the intake
port on the 302 tunnel port head.  Great for 8000 rpm but not very
streetable.

The HIPO heads are so different at the exhaust castings..Dshaped vs round

So, is the conclusion that Ford using the "HiPo"  designation was mostly a
sales gimmick? From the similarities with the un-HiPo  there doesn't seem to
be much gain. Mark _______________________________________________
