quite a few out there.

One on the Avignon Euro had to drop from a 9 to a 7 plug such was the difference in cooling effect

I have been running one on a TS1 as well and was very pleased with it although I did grind out the area between the overhanging fins on the fan side to aid airflow although I don't know if this was beneficial or not. The top end is on the naughty step at the moment as it developed an air leak which I didn't pick up on and resulted in a feked piston on the way back from Shipston.

The Avanti heads come with a much larger Avanti GRP cowling direct from Ron Moss
