Lou,
There is a gentleman from Austrailia that has a MkII Sprite with an
8 port head, amongst many others. You might want to send him an email.
I dug this clip out of my saved folder. His name is Colin Dodd, and he runs
Sprite Parts, a business is Oz.

I currently own 5 Bugeyes;
1) complete and ready for restoration
2) fully retored to showroom condition, rubber mats, crossply tyres etc etc
3) one owner and 14,000 miles from new
4) lightweight race car, all fibreglass panels, 1380cc engine etc
5) the "Fright", built in 1964 from a wrecked Jaguar E-Type with all
mechanicals grafted into the Bugeye shell. Lotus 16 independent rear end
with Jaguar inboard discs. Engine modified to full Le Mans D-type specs,
triple webers etc, 330 bhp. Top speed recorded at 158 mph. 0-60 mph in 3.8
seconds. A real hoot to drive!
Plus a Mk II Sprite, 1440cc with factory alloy cross-flow 8-port head and
twin 45DCOE Webers.
And for many year I have run Sprite Parts, a small business in Sydney (Oz)
specialising in .........(you guessed it).
regards
Colin
