Hi! Rebuilding a 196 engine, and want to know what head I have. Casting number is 361667-c1

looks like an emission head (large quench area). Forgot to specifically check, but believe it is pre-ic. Got it from an s800, but p.o. May have performed all sorts of butchery...

Head is at rebuilder's; did not measure valve sizes or check port shape. Exhaust valve guide has a huge bore!

Thanks...
 
Yes, and that is what I'm hoping...
Looks like some "clean up" work has been done to this head in the past; the shop is surprised at the smoothness of the short side radius. Both intake & exhaust have seats inserted.
However, one of the interior combustion chambers is cracked between the spark plug and the intake Port. Odd. Before I have this welded, I want to make sure I'm putting my money into an (otherwise) good casting.
