Thanks to Mick I will soon have a replacement head for our project.
Many thanks for your comments and assistance.

Cash is to hard earned to be spending on the wrong items

Cheers

Project 2 the Yellow 1 is now up and running fine with the new head provided by Mick.

The head was spot on a little work on valves and it fired up first time with no top end knocking .

The old head was a K7 head and the cam tower threads were all stripped letting the cam rattle about - not good. so with a little help from Mick it was easier to do a straight swap over. Still plenty to do but she's up and running on the road.

Cheers
