Default Re: B water pump heads

I lifted my Thomas head off my diamond B this weekend. It's taken two weeks of gentle persuasion…

I've seen Thomas heads for sale with different chamber shapes and the plugs in different places? Mine has the plugs near the cylinder edge. I like it - seems very smooth running and a perfectly uniform burn throughout the chamber.
The same with a B water pump to lose the gooseneck would be intriguing, but then I have a few B pumps...

The system for making heads that I am putting into action can use the Thomas chamber for the B style pump heads. I wish I had done this ages ago but I have been focused on other things. With models being completed and the mold system finalized it only remains to get people to request combinations in enough volume to warrant making small runs of various heads.
