Twin-cam for L28e?

Hey, I was wondering wether there are any twin cam heads for my L28e and their price. or would it be better to put this money towards a port&polish of existing head?

Any help would be great.

Much better to modify existing head. Ther is one twin cam crossflow head mentioned in "How To Modify your Nissan OHC" only about $10,000 plus cam drive hardware and such.

OS Giken makes a head and I have actualy seen one. It is no longer made but I bet they are a few floating around used in Japan.

You would proably get better results swapping in an RB25 motor. How about a RB25 head on your markets RB30 bottom end? That would be something!

If I were to do a trantsplant I would probably just drop in an RB25DET, although a 3.0L would be nice I would rather rely on the RB25's strength and just use a few bolt-on mods.
