All of our marine heads should be designed this way.

I'm sure they are dry decking so they can run a reverse cool motor.

This can be done with any BBC all you have to do is drill, tap and pipe plug the deck of the block. Then you can run the cooling water through the heads first to cool combustion and fight detonation. Then the heated water goes through the block to help with better ring seal. Guys have been doing this for years and years. Most builders are just to lazy to do it.
