Would anyone happen to know what the change date for the BN4 head casting was?
My car BN4O40559 came with an AEC271 head which has some cracking between the cooling passages and I have an AEC666 head off an A105 sedan which is in much better condition. I'm wondering what the car would have had originally.
The pics on Healeydata.com would suggest somewhere around BN4x30000 the head changed which would make the head which came with the car incorrect.
BN4L27518 AEC271
BN4L28224 AEC271
BN4LO29704AEC271
BN4LO29752 AEC271
BN4LO30601 AEC666
BN4L36686 -looks like AEC666 but hard to tell from pic
BN4O43177 AEC666
BN4LS48441 AEC666
BN4L48491 AEC666
The main visual difference between the castings is the addition of a brass blanking plug between cylinder 5&6 on top of the intake gallery.
