I have a set of stage 2 GTP's that I'll be putting up for sale very soon. They'd be good N/A heads as the chambers are 56cc. Complete with valves, springs, TI retainers, & locks. Heads have 250 miles on them in the current set up.
PM me if interested.

Might be JDC Engineering, but this guy is in Minonk, IL. I'm pretty sure he's done work for Billingsley. His name is Jon....build my 6L and ported my 243 heads. I'm making great power with my combination for a pump gas N/A car!

He's also build a lot of my friends motors. PM me if you want his number.
