trying to figure out what kinda "crack prone head"s i have
so i have 76 cc combustion chambers came on 350 only, big dual heat risers in the exhaust ports, and there a thin casting made from 73 to 84... cant figure out which one these are... i have looked through all my past threads and cant figure out which heads i went on about.

Re: trying to figure out what kinda "crack prone head"s i have
lol these heads are refered to boat anchors and commonly found on the small block chevys. i believe there 882 castings or something but those are also 400 heads. so the heads i have just came on 350s thats all i remember. ill pull a cover and check tomorrow....

Re: trying to figure out what kinda "crack prone head"s i have
The heads you're likely referring to are the crack-o-matics. 462624 is the number on those. They are 1.94's. There are also a replacement heads with the same number that are supposedly pretty good with 2.02's.

The 882s actually flow decent they are the best of the worst heads

Re: trying to figure out what kinda "crack prone head"s i have
462624s jog my memorie to good, all sorts of night marish details on google about these and the thing is they have time limits. its not how hard you pound on em either. i pound on these things any chance i get, but i always know somethings bout to go ping or maybe when im just cruising.
