        I am about to replace the cylinder head on my TR4. Found a crack in
        the original one after blowing the gasket a couple of weeks ago.
        What a bummer suffering serious down time in the middle of summer!
        Fortunately I found a couple of places with rebuilt heads on the shelf
        so I hope to be motoring again soon!!

        Anyway, I have just a couple of questions. Does anyone know the
        significance of the numbers stamped on the head. There are 2: one
        on the top, in my case "H220", and one on the side "302137". Just
        curious to know what these mean.

        Also I would welcome any general wisdom about pitfalls to avoid,
        tweaks to be made, or any other insights from those of you who have
        done this before. 

Thanks,
