Any idea what kind of heads these are?
« on: August 19, 2015, 11:09:03 pm »
Yeah was just curious as to what kind of heads these are tried looking up pictures to see what they might be. I did find something similar but still wasn't it. If anyone knows feel free to comment thank you👌.

There should be a number stamped into the inside of the head. You use the last three digits to decode the head.

That is the casting mark I boxed in red in Irish's post. It is reversed but that is it.

3927185....69-76...307/327/350..70cc chambers
or
3986339....71......307/350......74cc chambers

The 339 would be better than the 185 but once you get the numbers be easier to tell

So I looked under the valve cover found this number looks like it says 186? But on that chart it be a different head and that's not possible cus looks nothing like that other head symbol. Also found out the gas is in the oil and when I bought it dude said it had a sticky lifter at full throttle which I comfirmed. But could it just be cus the oil is to thinned out and it's just not oiled properly?

3927186....69-70...302/350......Camel hump,64cc chambers,accessory holes

An ok head but nothing that great. 64cc chambers are pretty small.

gas in oil can be from a bad fuel pump diaphragm. if you let the truck sit for a couple days of so does it seam to take a couple more cranks than normal to start?

Gas in oil can also be from a leaky carburetor

Yeah got to pump the gas pedal 3 times then it starts. Kid I bought it from been doing that since he got it. also might have leaky carb cus there is what looks to be gas caught in the torker intake like might of been running down or flooded i don't know. And wouldn't 64cc create higher compression? And thanks for the link ill have to check that out. maybe ill take a pic up close of the carb so can see what's going on.
