Title: WTB Alloy head in Adelaide
Post by: corty_250 on September 07, 2014, 07:48:42 PM: Hi all, Just chasing up an Alloy head for my corty the current one has some corrosion on the back water gallery that has gotten quite close to the sixth cylinder. It managed to work it's way through the head gasket. Also if anyone has a manifold/carby set up they would like to part with, I'm also looking to upgrade from the standard weber.

I'd head to you pull it and start pulling off heads to find a good one. The more popular ones for performance mods are c1 c1a c2 c2a.
