Mssr. Bwatoe Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 (edited) I discovered over 40 years ago that the real badge of pride on our sweet little V-12 is a set of polished or clean matte aluminum cylinder heads (prewar),is the most awe inspiring compliment to our already stunning , unique automobiles. I used to brag to my GM buddies that My Lincoln has an Aluminum intake!! from the factory, (it was a time when v-8s and Edelbrock and Holley were the rage in my world. ) The problem is that the old tennite aluminum heads from prewar era were not expected to last 75 years. (in my world they dont, cracks, over milled, pitting, etc.......) Here is my dream come true----I had silver painted smoothed iron till now-- They also solve the problem (I've found) that proper flathead machine cyl head service is not that easy to come by, resurface machines do not like the long flat head with tall raised outlet... this solves the problem..these are the last that he made.. MARKED 86H IN RAISED LETTERS ( i ground mine off) HEADS FOR SALE HAVE THE 86H! you can get the Zephyr script engraved or leave them plain like I did.. BRAND NEW MODERN STRONG THICK PROPER CASTING JON SCOBEL KEARNEY FOUNDRY CYLINDER HEADS..READY TO GO.. $2500.00 a set send me pm. Edited March 6, 2021 by Mssr.

Mssr. Bwatoe Posted March 6, 2021 Author Share Posted March 6, 2021 (edited) Jon Scobel was a LZOC member , who used / worked at Kearney foundry. These are from him,I can vouch for the safety of an investment like this. My heads have been test driven over 5000 miles on my personal car. They improved the cooling, and performance, they help the torque readings much better than the old ones I noticed . I know that Dave Cole featured him in TWOTZ at one point...Look in past issues..
