Hi guy's,

forgive my ignorance but can someone tell me what a Keeley Turbo Head is all about. Pics would be great. Is it 'the head' to have?

GTR,

The Keeley Turbo Head has slots(or porting) in the head on the intake and exhaust sides of the head. I think the idea is to direct the charge of fuel across the head to improve combustion. A better burn would result in more power. And gawd only knows there's no such thing as, "Too much power!!!"

The heads on the K&B 3.5ss and 7.5 Pro also have a similar feature. The porting on the Keeley Turbo Head is smooth while the K&Bs feature finger porting.

The older K&Bs did show performance gains using the Keeley Turbo Head. I'm not familiar with how it worked on other motors.

I know Gary Preusse sells them - (630) 279-2451 - Gary doesn't believe in the internet so there's no website or e-mail. But, he's very willing to discuss things on the phone.
