Check this out, It's an e-mail from AKM Racing. They are the guy's I contacted ages ago about the 7 port heads. Would've worked out about £1500 to get one off them. We'll have to wait and see how Mini Sport compare:
'Dear Sir
We have sold all casting equipment and tools, as we use to make the 7 port cylinder head. Mini Sport in UK have take over, so please take contact to Mini Sport if you still want one. '
New Alloy 7 port heads available in the uk...

Yeah, Minisport being Minisport they'll probably cast it on the cheap and charge more for it!
(And it'll be even more if you want one that's been finish machined!)

I thought that the AKM heads were Steel.
It's a bit of a bugger that Mini Sport have taken over production though. I was after one, but now it seems like a big risk.
