Brand new Tipo style heads. (14 bolt)
Fitted with LPG compatible valve seat inserts and cast iron guides. 39.5mm inlet valve size, 35.5mm seat throat size. 31.0mm exhaust valve head size, 27.0mm exhaust seat throat size. Inlet port size 28.5/29.0 and exhaust port size 27.5mm.
I've flow tested one and the results were pretty good for a straight out of the box head. Figures are at 28" of H2O

Port air speed numbers were good as well. I've only taken measurements at 200thou and 400thou, but my flow bench plots a port speed profile across 9 points (8 points around the circumference and one right in the centre) using a pitot tube. At 200thou the 9 points range between 249 and 261 feet/sec, at 400thou the range is between 317 and 335 feet/sec...which is very good for an untouched port.
Now these numbers are with "as supplied" seat cuts, nothing fancy...so some improvement could be had simply by altering the seat cut to a narrower sealing face, at the moment they're almost 3mm wide. Same with the valves I used for the flow test, straight out of the box TRW replacement valves, no backcut or profiling, so these are totally raw figures and my baseline for these heads.
This compares to the standard X19/128 cylinder head with a 36mm intake valve which flows approx 88cfm @ 28"of H2O, so a considerable improvement straight out of the box.
The 14 bolt Tipo type heads can fit the stock X1/9 or 128 style 10 bolt block, after the four small holes are plugged, and the thermostat has an adaptor plate to allow fitment of the stock X19 thermostat housing, for a 128 I can supply Tipo thermostats. Bare cylinder head as shown $825au plus postage. Limited quantity
