Thread: 194 heads

looking for a good set of 194 heads...cast iron

check your local junk yard! just check the casting #'s before you buy

Just about all heads after the 60's will be 1.94, with the exception of the 305 heads which are 1.84 I believe.

I agree with Monte, do some research about heads, i.e. chamber size, heavy or light casting, center or perimeter valve covers, intake bolt holes, etc.

I might suggest going to a local auto machine shop and see if they have some have some heads that someone brought in and never claimed. They should also be knowledgeable about fitting your needs.

This is an excellent idea. Grab a Mansfield phone book and call all the automotive machine shops.

i work at a local junk yard and we have at least 5 good sets of heads, all off mid 70's cars and trucks. the good part about this is that they aren't worth anything to a junk yard because they are old and "out of date". this means you can get them cheap. i sell them for $20 each, so you should be able to get a nice set for no more than $50. happy hunting!!!!!!

Summit makes copies of the double hump heads for a reasonable price that are ready to bolt on.
