Cylinder head cracked

[1964carlito]

1939 Pontiac Business coupe with 223 cu in flat head six has a crack in cylinder head. I have it temp repaired with expoxy, it’s holdjng but I know eventually I’ll need to replace the head. After searching for weeks, no luck. Anyone know where I may obtain one?

Not to suggest that you shouldn't look for and get replacement if you can but that would be a very simple stitch repair.  You could do it without even removing the head.  You can do it without the fancy kits but they make it really easy.

Just wondering if you`ve had overheating problems resulting in the cracked head. If so, your water distribution tube could be rotted away.
