Re: Rajo overhead
Chaffin makes the 8 valve Rajo. There were some repros of the 4 valve done years ago. If you want an all new OHV setup, Chaffin’s unit is real nice. The one advantage of a 4 valve is it will fit on late cars without notching the firewall and gas tank.

Re: Rajo overhead
As I recall. a few different people made reproduction four valve Rajo heads. One was produced many years ago in Australia if I recall correctly. Some were cast iron I know, And I think a few were made in cast aluminum. Quality and fit varied between those repros.
It used to be that both original and repro four valve heads were usually available in various states of condition. However, in recent years, any I have heard of for sale at a reasonable price have sold quickly! And I haven't heard of one in awhile now.
