I don't know if I mentioned this here before or not but I'm looking for a Triumph 1300 head. Anyone here have a good head they'd care to part with? I would prefer something that doesn't need rebuilding but will consider a core. I'd rather a member get my money than an unknown ebayer. Thanks.

I think I have one. You have any casting numbers?

Looking for 218141 or 218142.

Might consider a 515973 or TKC 1156 (stamped #)

What numbers y'all have?

Please do, especially whatever is stamped above #3 exhaust port by the valve cover.

I believe I have what you need. First head is a 1500 Spit/Midget head. According to the tag its been reconditioned. Numbers are 312246-52 15F 3

There is a second head that is a bare head, no valves. Its a 13F 3

Last head i believe is early Spit or Herald, Stanpart 511538 Casting 304955

PM me and we'll talk cost and stuff.

You sure that's not 312240? What's stamped on that one and the bare head?

Last one is too early for what I'm after.

Will have to get back with you again tomorrow. I did write the numbers down in a hurry. Didn't figure you wanted the bare head so I didn't get the numbers other than the 13F

Actually I'd prefer something that's usuable. Thanks, whenever is fine.

Bare head has the casting numbers 13 F7, RK O 0589

The 1500 head has a serial number of 218139, on the 15 F 3 , the last number in the sequence 31224X-52 could be a 6 or a 0, its hard to tell the way its cast.
