Default Shovelhead with EVO heads?

Searching on ebay and found this Frankenstein...advertized as a shovelhead...which I thought he had ms-labeled till I looked really close at the pic...cast iron jugs with EVO heads...ever seen one of these?

it has duel plugs really - and the drains go around the block to the left side - looking the the tops of the pushrods i would say its a re make of a shovel head to look like an evo

After doing a little more searching...I believe it is custom cast iron cylinders made to bolt on EVO heads..here is another set with twincam heads.

STD used to manufacture "Shovelution" heads.
You could bolt those on a Shovel, with the use of Evo tappets/blocks/cams, and a little machining.
We ran those castings on our 108" AHDRA Mod Class bike, with our dual carb set-up(pics in the gallery section of our site)to high 8's @ over 147 mph.

Well it seems that Axtell made the cylinders to do this mod ages ago...but was only popular in drag racing circles.
