Re: Are these EAB heads OK?

Thanks Mark, appreciate it. I'm all set and have amassed quite a collection of EAB heads at this point!

Re: Are these EAB heads OK?

Regarding the heads, that engine is not yet assembled yet but I ended up using the right side head from the pair pictured above. My machine shop took off 0.015-0.020 (not angle milled) to clean up...

Re: Are these EAB heads OK?

I found a decent left side EAB head and the combustion chambers are a little larger - more volume when measured with fluid and deeper in the areas over the valves (measure near where the center would...

Re: Are these EAB heads OK?

Rodrelic, those are indeed the desirable high compression 52-53 Ford head. I already found a replacement EAB for the worse, left side head and am hoping to salvage the right one. Thanks though!! Ken

Re: Are these EAB heads OK?

Thanks everyone for sharing your opinions. I'll hold onto these and keep my eyes open for another set. Al Clarke is doing my short block and I won't know how much can be milled until that's done in a...

Re: Are these EAB heads OK?

The EAB head has the smallest combustion chamber of all the factory heads and therefore gives the highest compression ratio. I measured 68-71cc on these but have no idea if they've been milled...

Re: Are these EAB heads OK?

Sounds unanimous! Not the first $180 I've flushed away and likely not the last. I am planning on a deep cut but won't know how much until I get my block... Please PM me if anyone has a good set.

Are these EAB heads OK?

I just had these EAB heads blasted and plan to have them milled for ~0.050" clearance after measuring with my block (in progress). A few of the chambers show some moderate pitting though. Is this OK...
