Slightly off topic but what problems are people seeing with the mofoco heads? (i.e. what should I watch for when I assemble my August 2016 edition aerovee turbo ;-) )
A common problem was the one I had, the spark plug holes were tapped incorrectly, reportedly due to the use of worn tooling. When I installed the spark plugs the fist time I spun the lower right hole. Sonex took care of the problem and replaced both heads with new heads that had Timeserts in each spark plug hole. Check your heads and make sure the Timeserts are present, if not contact Sonex or MOFOCO directly. When I had my problems Sonex said they were having Timeserts installed in all MOFOCO heads they sell. You will also need to use a spacer under the intake manifold to raise the intake elbows to clear the rear upper spark plugs.
