Before Gene Berg passed away, their shop was working on a copper based
gasket ands machining the heads to accept it and appearantly  it's working
well.  Unfortunately, the shop is  way overloading with more money making
projects and we may never see this mod come to light.  Letters and calls to

Gene Berg Ent. in Orange, CA may convince them to get going on this.  I'm
sure they are on line, but don't know the address.  I spoke in person w/
Gene about the waterboxer engine back in the late 80's and he was quite
high on it.  I believe he thought it would tolerate 3.0 sleeves w/ no
trouble and the existing head ports are huge to begin with.  Hook that up
to a decent cam and their Haltech FI system, and look out!!
