ARAO 32 valve heads?

I'm interested if anybody has experience with these 32 valve heads for SBF's. I'm looking to build an engine that is different than the rest but still runs good and has reliability.

Sounds really expensive. Plus, how are all those valves actuated...4.6 style timing chain? I think the theory is cool, hell I'd even like to see one run, but like stated earlier, I'll bet its incredibly expensive.

i think this was addressed in another thread. something about the guy couldn't produce a real product something like that.

There have been a number of threads on this subject over the years. Basically they are super expensive and they never ship the product.

funny thing is about an hour ago on the show My Classic Car they had the owner of this company on with some of his product.

mostly chevy engines there was one ford but as the guy was talking my 2 year old start throwing a fit cause he wanted to watch cartoons and i missed what the guy said about the engine. it didn't look like a 302 base motor, and when he said the cubic inches i couldn't hear it clearly but it sounded like three eighty something or three ninety something. so i'm guessing it was a 351 base motor.

who knows

oh and all the engines were carb, nothin was mentioned that i know of about EFI
