Bob at All Pro is the man. I called in there once and the lady gave me his cell phone number to call him while he's on vacation. Now that's customer service! That pretty much made up my mind with getting a set of their heads. I have the 230cc ones though. No monster motor for me.

I was told more like June or July.
ET Cylinder heads has some very nice 6 bolt heads available if you cannot wait.
I should have a set of their C5R 6 Bolt heads to play with soon.
When I get a moment I'll post some pictures of the GMPP Prototype race 6 bolt heads that were on display at SEMA and PRI.

Not completely on point but Hot Rod just had an awesome article where they put a bunch of GM crate motors in an old Chevelle and ran it down the quarter mile. One was the 454 LSX crate motor that was taked about in 2006 or 2007. They said it would be available in early 2009. I assume it also has the 6 bolt heads.
Seems like GM has more important issues to deal with now but it kind of sucks. They were also supposed to have an aluminum version of the LSX that almost seems to have been forgotten.

I just picked up that copy and plan to read it on the plane in a few minutes on my way back home from Puerto Rico. I hope something else comes available mid next year when I'm ready for the 6 bolts.

+1 on a GM aluminum LSX block. What happened?

I'll have to check and see what my Atech price is now
. Do you know what size the valves are, if they come in 72cc? I have way more wrapped up in my AFR's with the valve and spring upgrades I did than these things cost.
