SamB Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Hello Out there in antique car land. I sure need help. I have been restoring a 1927 Studebaker Roadster on and off for the last 14 years. I have it almost complete and after geting it running found that the motors head is no good. I need a head for the Standard Six motor. The motor in my car is a EU model and was only used in 1927. The casting # for this head is 123097-4 F.8.24. For the time being I can use one from the ER Standard Six motor that was used in 1925 and 1926. The casting # for this head is 123097-4 E.6.15. The difference between the two heads is that the EU model has an outlet for a temperature blub and the ER model does not. I have attached a photo showing the defference between the two heads. If you have one or know someone that may please contact me at sbb@centurytel.net Regards:SamB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barryh Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 My head is nearly identical to the '26 head, but with the no., 123097-3 E.2.2, I presume that it is an earlier year model, perhaps '24-5. It has no temp bulb hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldford Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 The heads you have are the same. Take the head without the temperature bulb hole and take it to an automotive machine shop and they can drill and tap to suit. Easy Peesy.... Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
