<DIV>Can any of you of the early Spitfire persuasion give me a primer on the
"good" and/or "better" cylinder heads? I'm really interested to know about
casting numbers AND stamped numbers, what the differences are, why the 303014
(casting number, I think) head was once banned in SCCA Production racing but is
now allowed again and what's so special about that particular head...in short,
any such details you'd care to share.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I know someone once told me that one or more of the 948cc heads was good as
well; unfortunately, I lost the details on that in a long-ago computer
crash.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for any and all insights!
