What is meant by a 'CNC' head? Does that mean a head milled from a block of aluminum as opposed to casting?

The single biggest obstacle in that is you're very limited in how to create water jackets....on a cast head - iron or aluminum - the jackets are running in places you can't reach with a machine tool. Most milled heads I've seen are dry heads meant for very short term use....not what you'd want on a Slant Six, most likely.
Present the design to some well known Mopar engine guru and get them to endorse the project so you could have some legacy built-in - not that they'd contribute very much to the design,



I had a Mopar guru oficiando use one of my Slant 6 products in a Mopar magazine article....does that count! LOL
If you were able to get 100 heads into production, you'd be the guru! Most of the older engineer designers have died. I don't know if big personalities rule in Detroit anymore.

It's worth taking a look at it again. I need to create a 3D model of a single cylinder and make a hands on sample. The key is to make it compatible with existing intakes and headers so no custom pieces will need to be purchased by the end user.
