Webco Head
« on: November 07, 2011, 12:51:37 pm »
Time must indeed be tough in the USA. I just scored this Webco head for $95US as the only bidder yet only 7 or 8 months ago I dropped out of a bidding war with 3 or 4 other punters at $200 on an identical head which I think eventually sold for $220. I've now got a cool little collection of DT1/RT1 aftermarket heads. For the DT1 I've got Webco x 2, ACK, GYT x 2, and Kennedy. For the RT1 I've got ACK, Webco, RT2MX and GYT.

If anyone knows of any other brands made to the DT1/RT1 please let us know. Someone told me Skunk Works made one but I've never seen one or even seen an ad for one.

I think it's time someone dug up the guys from Skunkworks and do a story on them; sorry to hijack  ;-)

yer theres a couple more US ones firko.  Funny thing i did a cc on 3 Dt1 heads and although the webco had the coolest looking profile, it wasnt the highest comp from memory at 28cc and twice as heavy as the GYT.
