Hi...

They might have made a few to test but none were sold to the public. VK's all had electronic ignition and the Calais sported fuel injection and extractors (EFI was an option on the Berlina from memory). All had the cast iron head.

Cheers,

Ford had an alloy head made by Honda for its 6. Maybe the Holden engine skunk works did something out the back of the factory but this is one of the reasons we had the Nissan motor in the VL - the old 202 was just too old to do anything like that with it. Mabe your bother-in-law should read Barry Lake's book "Commodore, Lion King" then he can even tell Barry where he's wrong :yeah:

I have seen an alloy head 4 the 202 in a factory in Dandenong VIC, created in a limited number by perry performance parts, very limited edition only about ten made as a special order.

Ummm Bill Tucky did that book and in that book it actually has a small write up that yes the 202 was tried with a ford alloy X flow head
