With normal heads the fins get the heat by a tree construction over de center of the head. My head has each fin directly connected to the base so I think all 8 fins will work the same to get the heat out of the head. Also the slots prevents that all trapped air can bend off from the head and so the air is forced to flow through the head.

The test will be to tune the engine with a normal head and then place this one to see if the engine reacts the same and measure the temps to compare.

But most of all I wanted something unique and I think this is it.
