Your stock wheels (late model Spits at least) have the tapered lug nuts so the holes are bigger. Joe /// spitfires@autox.team.net mailing lis; /html/spitfires/2002-04/msg00251.html (7,131 bytes)

227. Re: Interchangable heads (score: 1): Author: Joe Curry <spitlist@gte.net>; Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2002 07:24:49 -0700; Dave, The main difference is the thickness. The 1296 heads are much thinner and therefore if used on a 1500 will have a much higher compression ratio. (Too high in most cases)!

Re: Interchangable heads (score: 1): Author: Joe Curry <spitlist@gte.net>; Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2002 08:39:01 -0700; Well, If you want to do that, I'd highly recommend that you have the 1500 head significantly shaved if you are interested in performance. If you don't, the resulting compression ratio will be reduced; /html/spitfires/2002-04/msg00306.html (7,718 bytes)

230. Re: head thickness... (score: 1): Author: Joe Curry <spitlist@gte.net>; Date: Fri, 12 Apr 2002 19:37:31 -0700; The 1500 head is about 5/8" from the combustion chamber to the deck. The 1296 head is only about 3/8". In other words, you'd have to shave about a quarter inch off a 1500 head to create the same com; /html/spitfires/2002-04/msg00333.html (7,242 bytes)
231. Re: Continuing saga of Klunk over bumps (score: 1): Author: Joe Curry <spitlist@gte.net>; Date: Fri, 12 Apr 2002 19:54:05 -0700; It is it a single clunk or a repetitive one? If it is a single clunk, it is probably due to one of the trunnion parts being worn out or the hole ovaled out. That will cause slop in the mating pieces; /html/spitfires/2002-04/msg00335.html (8,051 bytes)

Re: head thickness (score: 1): Author: Joe Curry <spitlist@gte.net>; Date: Fri, 01 Mar 2002 19:18:12 -0700; Rather than measuring the head thickness, you should really be measuring the thickness from the surface that mates with the block to the top of the combustion chamber.
