Cylinder Heads

Well i've been taking apart my engine to find out the reason why it was smoking so much out of the exhaust, and the heads and gasket were shot, i was wondering if there was any way i could buy new aftermarket aluminum heads that would fit up exactly like the stock heads off my 305 TPI

Re: Cylinder Heads

Any of them should... I see no reason they wouldn't. If its a 305 though, avoid heads with bigger than 1.94/1.60 valves and anything over 60cc chambers.

Trickflow actually makes a really good head for the 305. Its a 175cc aluminum head with 56cc chambers, 1.94/1.50 valves. They are designed with the small-bore blocks in mind.
