I have a stock 218139 head that has 1.44 valves in it; but I also  
have 515973/573 FP prepped heads that have 1.44 valves, and one  
TKC2748 head with 1.44 valves.
John, what are the real differences in the heads (515xxx vs. 218xxx  
vs. TKCxxxx) if any?

Thanks

Shipwright's Disease.   Its a nasty affliction, particularly when  
owns a british car.  Then it can never be cured.

I think I must have serious problem, off the top of my head there were
four large valve heads - 218139, 218140, 218141, 218142. (it's the
remembering the numbers that's the problem). I think they are 1500LC,
1500HC, 1300LC and 1300HC respectively. Somebody tell me I've got these
the wrong way round before I go and get help from a shrink - it's eight
years since I stopped with Triumph spares. aaaaargh
