Has anyone else seen this before? I'm just curious how out of the ordinary these bumpless heads are.  Came out of an '81 caddy I parted out, I believe it was the original engine, but can't be sure.

are you POSITIVE that you are not thinking of some gasser head you had once upon a time?
92 Jetta GLI - Black, 1.6D w/ GT2056V turbo..
86 GTI - 4 Door, Med Twilight Gray, Tow Machine..
86 Audi Coupe GT - Tornado Red, All Stock.. WRECKED.
89 Toyota 4Runner - Dark Grey Metallic, LIFTED!

Turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.
