HELP Cylinder Head

@RustyRatRod thanks as always. I was wondering why the #s were backwards! I do remember reading somewhere to avoid the heads with the "dime" (maybe in the Dutra book) but I figured it was a cheap enough learning experience... Definitely not as nice as your closed chamber head but if it can keep me driving while I get my original one run'n right I'll be happy!

No reason whatsoever to avoid them. They aren't the devil. The 68 and up head is a little better, but not by a mile. I wouldn't sweat it.

I probably have a revised (68 and up) head here that's a much better core than that. I would be happy to romp a basic valve job on one and give you a good deal on it......but shipping would hurt. It would even have factory hardened seats.
