More 840 head questions...

[Chevy454]

Well, I talked to Colvin today, and he said it sounded like something he would like to see. So, I'm gonna grab the digital camera and snap some pictures. He said he has been trying to finish up his new book (Corvette by the Numbers) but that he will try and dig through his stuff and see what he can come up with.

As for the 291 heads on '69 cars, he agreed that it happened, albeit on late cars, but he really hadn't had a chance to document any original engine cars with the 291s. So, if you own one, or know of one, you might contact Allen so he can document it.

But, for now, I'm stuck with a set of gorgeous heads I can't use (the 840s), and a set of heads that I am going to have to have re-seated with smaller seats and new and smaller exhaust valves (my early 291s) so i can run at the PSMCDR. Some days it never pays to get out of bed...
