T/A Cylinder head picture ?
« on: September 18, 2022, 02:01:29 PM »
Does anybody have a clear picture showing the visual difference in the push rod openings of a T/A head vs a regular J head ?

 :brainiac: what a great idea  :haha:

I have a set that came with a customer's AAR that I'm restoring, but they were not on the motor, so I want to be certain they were T/A heads before sending them out...I looked at them today and started second guessing myself... :console: I was thinking the holes were further apart, not closer together :thinking:

915 heads with U cast on underside and date cast jan - Mar to match production range....and as the previous post shows the machining location rocker arm push rods. Check the rockers for mix and match rockers on the shafts i.e. W2 vs TA

So aside from the offset pushrod holes, are there actually any differences in the castings?

I understand that the offset hole is to leave more metal for porting, but that stock, the ports are the same as a regular 340 head.

TIA

Yes, that is correct.
