Default Winfield castings

I have 4 cores coming for Winfield head samples. I'm hoping to be able to at least have a casting to show at Hershey. Machined? I doubt it.

I would be interested in a Winfield Repro. Do you have the "Rights" to the name and original script?

Hey Tod,

I am not putting any script on mine, yet. Mine resembles the Winfield and Cyclone but without any script.

Hey Tod,
Many moons/months ago, I gave my head want preference, but here it is again. I'd like an 8:1 CAST IRON Winfield crowfoot !
Do not care whether it is marked at all with letters/names. Just want the Comp Ratio spot on and of good solid construction. Sound familiar
