Don't people grind the B off as the judging is a bit pedantic?

What about one of Tod's new heads?

These heads (stock top crow's foot) are not available yet (testing not completed) and they are a little over 7:1 compression, which I doubt will be wanted by most Model A owners. I expect a small market for these. Winfield heads are being made regularly, however.
