Re: Spitfire Cylinder heads??

Any of the 8 port, 10 head bolt heads should fit any of the 1300 or 1500
blocks.  Putting a 1300 head on the 1500 block will give you a higher
compression ratio, as the casting for the 1500 is thicker.  In fact, the
first thing in thecomp prep manual for the 1500, in the chapter on heads,
is something like "Remove 0.200 inches from the head"
