That's a good question. I don't think anyone used the 4valve GS head in 79. You would think the Vance&Hienes team would have since they had factory backing. I'm not suer about the road race guys.there must have been some R&D going on then.

They were on the race tracks in 79. Suzuki did race developement with several teams.

You won't be able to use the head as it was only being developed & not LEGALLY racing till 1980.
