Title: Penton 400 Cyl head modification Jerry Birky
Post by: 454MRW on September 23, 2017, 08:28:22 AM
Is it possible to still have the 400 head modification done? I'm not sure of the current status, but I figured while I have the pipe off, and I'm working on the carburetor, I should have it done.
I guess I should have clarified this to ask is there any way of contacting Penton Racing Products, are they still operating? There is no contact information on their site that I see. Mike

It is my understanding that Penton Racing Products has closed the doors.

I thought I read something about that, but all I can find is where they were dropping the ignition parts and service. I wonder where the tool bit is, and if it could be sold or passed on to someone capable of doing the modification? Mike
