Christmas comes early for some people
 
Two of these heads exist. The castings had extra material added so that evil geniuses could work their magic. Herb Becker has one for Doug MacRae and Jim Comstock, who donated his to Doug, is about to receive the other. Such is the magic that my own personal Santa's elves can work.
 
I always thought it would be a no-brainer to cast them "heavy" to allow the porting crowd to be able to go nuts.

VERY nice.
 
Same as a standard Norton head. It's the same design. Just with more meat to accomodate the revised porting. But, in standard form, the head will give you all the power you will ever need in a road going Commando in all the right places, meaning, right through the rev range, beginning at idle. Big valves are for racers who want everything they can get, but with the advantage in the upper mid range and higher revs.

The standard ports on Fullauto Technologies heads, designed by Jim Comstock, are a distillation of over thirty years of knowledge in making Nortons go better. My own bike has a standard FT head with not even the ports tidied up and it feels very strong, even with a single Mikuni VM 34.
 
I have a CNW build with a Full Auto Head and Twin Flat Slide Keiheins. The difference these two changes do to a stock 850 motor is amazing.
 
There are a few of us here in NZ who would like to get their hands on some????

I would love one under my Xmas tree, but I think its just wishfull thinking on my part :roll: but I just spent some of my redundancy money on a lathe and milling machine, so alloy triple trees and alloy rearsets for the project bike will be fun to make.
Hope your wishes come true.

Just tell me what you want. I can get the elves to work. From a raw casting to a head machined to any stage.
