Hi all,

It’s time I dispose of parts I accumulated for my Parklane build but didn’t end up using. I have four heads and would appreciate any suggestions on pricing - I know what I have in them but really don’t know what they are worth. I’m happy to entertain offers, of course. I live in Minneapolis. I have a 113 head, a G head, and then a matching set of G heads. The matched set was redone years ago and I bought them that way with the intention of using them. I ended up buying an unmolested set from Jerry Christenson that he ported for me, so all of these heads were put on the shelf. Someone will have to remind me how to check if the heads are posted - I can’t seem to find it on the forum.

The single 113:

Daniel: Posting the heads became necessary when Stock Car racers like Smokey Unick, were milling them well beyond factory recommendations.. Apparently also because the realighned intake ports on the new "G" heads, resulted in less casting support, which led to problems when raced..

"Dots look like cylinder numbers. I would have just written the number instead of all the dots. ------"

Maybe for religious reasons? Maybe the Reverend knows...LOL

Or, maybe the previous owner was numerically illiterate, and could only count using his fingers?
ALSO (re: posts), maybe someone at FoMoCo could see into the future, where Y-blocks would be overhauled many times (unlike with GMs ‘throw-away’ SBC motor), and numerous clean-up head millings would eventually stack up & become an issue with gasket sealing?
