Hi Gents looking for worked cylinder heads, needs to be aluminium and shipped.Thanks in advance. John
I have a set of original 215,complete with valves and springs.Where are you located?I would guess over the border,Bruno.
I have a set of aluminum 300s. Were pulled from a working engine. Have not been dismantled or cleaned.
Thanks for the replies gents. unfortunately the worlds seams to be in lockdown at the moment. but I am still chasing some heads to fit the buick/rover based block. prefer worked buick 300 heads as I don't have to change manifold heights, but anything considered. I have been in contact with a couple of group members, who might be able to help, but nothing yet. I know members have spent a lot of time increasing valves and porting, adding roller rockers etc. If you have something of this nature and have moved onto something else or gone a different direction let us know. Yes I am over the pond in Australia so freight would have to be added.
You might try the www.row52.com site. I have had zero luck in getting anyone on that site to respond to me, aside from a single helpful moderator. One center of activity there is California, which is closest to you on the mainland, so perhaps you could zero in on a California based puller on the row 52 site. I have had access to what seemed to me very good Range Rover bodies in the U pull it here, but there are long gone now. Probably some rich doctor's kid drove them for a while and then dumped them when some gremlin appeared.
Have 65 Lesabre that may have your heads & solitary 215 head If you can id emgine from carb tag... stand a chance have identifying the engine has the engineer's and a Buick and all their wisdom decided hide engine ID in th dumbest assed place I've ever seen and can't get to & all th experts can tell me is what they think it might be...wow Have old jeep w/v6,,but thats diffrent probably Omishjon4@gmail.com
Correct you are...only alum is I believe a bastard 215....just like th ex wife says ... I much good for nothin but didling her sister...
Thanks for the replies. I have a stack of early heads like the 215 heads. pressed rockers with an aluminium bridge piece. But I have upgraded the block to 3.72" pistons but keeping the original stroke of 3.5" Hence my need is better air flow potential. I have a willpower single plain 4bbl manifold, a good cam and other little bits and pieces, but Lack the heads. Now I could try and port a set of rover 4.6 heads. I have oversized Valves for them and some new guide, but I shake at bit, like I have a fever. I need glasses too for finer details. and while,world isolation gives me the time to do such activities. I thought I might ask a few forums first. Please if you know of someone.. give them a shout. "Only milk and juice come in 2 ltrs"
