Fairly sure the guides are in Big Seagull.

You sure you want it ; one of them is going to be chopped in half , made shiney and used as book ends...............that'll be the 'recon(figured)' n/a one then.    Best I put the TD one aside.

So just a bare head, no valves or springs? Does in have guides in? And is it the early TD jobbie like I sort of guessed?

Ok, some clues;

the one on the left is off a 2.5na.

I hadn't really noticed , but Lozza did; look at the gaps between the valve ports; the head on the left shows quite a considerable gap and the gap is dished out ( if that makes sense) , the right one is completely different.

Look at the thermo housing casting, notice any differences??

Why foobared?  The left one is **** and the right one has been on a block which seemingly suffered ring failure ( beyond what a Phal will do :smilewide:) and the pitting around the water ways doesn't leave alot of sealing face.

But what is the one on the right?

Bert the Bodger should know.............

2.25D at a guess, possibly 2.5... I've need more info to be certain (they may be positively identifiable from that angle, but not by me!)
