Lightbulb Hmmm, I Wonder--

Given the thoughts in the above posts I wonder if there is enough demand to build heads/intakes/camshafts of FE configuration on the Windsor 9.5" Block with raised port layout which would give the a windsor an outside appearance of being an FE from the outside/top. ( IE A FE Head with Windsor bore spacing & material added to creat extra depth in the head casting to allow for straighter port runners and allow FE covers & intake manifold to fit when bolted to the 351 9.5" block. If the head castings were shuffled around dimension wise existing FE manifolds could be made to fit.
I remember ? Paul Bedouin? was using adaptors that allowed the use of cleveland intakes on his prostock FE motors a few decades back.
Hope I have not blown the cover on anyone already on this track, just something I would like to see happen.

Xmas cheers
