Default WTB: BBC Rect. Port/Closed Chamber Heads

I need a set of big block rectangular port/closed chamber heads. Prefer an un-ported or lightly modified set. No hardware is fine...

Thanks for the response. Do you have just one '291' service replacement head? Need one with a 5/8" tapered seat plug. If you don't have singles I can use a complete set with either the 5/8" or earlier style 13/16 gasketed plug.

Do not have the later style 291's, and the pair I have are not date matched. They are complete, not milled, not hogged, not cracked.

Okay, dates are not important for this project. As long as they use the same plug size/style. My Zip code is 19342. Please let me know what you need for your set. Thanks, Tom

Default 291 heads

I have a nice set of 291s available. Here is my craigslist ad. It's easier than retyping everything.
