one of the things about living way up here  is that there is no auto inspection...anything goes, pretty much....as long as the cops don't see something obviously unsafe...and no pollution inspections, either...there are so few people, it is no problem...and most vehicles are generally pretty safe...but some get very rusty...when you can look into the rust holes on the door , and see out the other side of the car thru the other door, thatss pretty rusty...

Don is correct, the name of the company is Stage V Engineering.  They are still around but now they concentrate their efforts in the aftermarket aluminum Hemi head market.

I remember the valve covers of the magazine car (a GTX) had "Stage V" cast into the cover, pretty cool looking.

if it was a HEMI Clone, would the spark plug wires not enter into the top of the heads?

The Stage V heads were not clones, they were real Hemi heads and yes the plugs went through the valve cover

Its a very rare car.   1 of none.

According to these Bozo's they built 292 of these engines/Cars? eyes This is a 1/64 die cast I had to buy for my son when he was little thinking it was a big time screw up but maybe they (Popular Hot Rodding) built it that way. With a six pack to boot!

I found the article. It was in the September 1988 issue of Hot Rod. The car was a '69 GTX, it ran low 14's stock on avgas and open headers. After the hemi head conversion with the same stock trans, converter, and 3.54 gears, running through mufflers and on pump gas, it was in the low 11's at 116mph. Unlike the engine in the previous link, this one had a Crane cam, 246 duration @ .050
