the head is making a name for him/her selfthe head is making a name for him/her self
the initial coats head was designed about ten years ago they said back then it would be the greatest thing since sliced bread GM helped with the R & D it was going to be the head for the C5 LS-1
i don't think it has a whole lot of merit except for racing applications current valvetrains aare lower cost to manufacture and the tolerances do not have to be as exact
i don't know how well the coats design would respond to mass production due to the tight tolerances needed to keep the seal on the closed side of the cam
