161, what head to reco? out of the 9 ports, i didnt end up getting the manifold for the black motor so i am stickin with the ol red.

car has 3x 1/34 su carbs and 30/70 cam. needs the head done but i wouldnt mind finding out what the differences are between the old 9 port heads.

any one know a head man? hope its not too expensive,

as far as i'm aware, there are only 2 heads on the red motors and the only difference is the chamber volume.

in my opinion, you're better off going for a Yella Terra head. personally, i'd get a second hand one and reco it. a used YT head goes for about $100-200.
they're worth bugger all, but have similar valve sizes to the 12 port heads
