brad Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 What do the numbers stamped on the center ports of said heads signify?
brad Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) Nope, it has a definite answer Edited January 13, 2015 by brad
mfg Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 OK...I'll give it a 'shot'!.....The numbers over the center exhaust port of R3-4 heads signify the head casting number, and unlike the casting number on the engine block, that number also signifies the Studebaker part number.......No?
brad Posted January 14, 2015 Author Report Posted January 14, 2015 Nope. It has nothing to do with the casting number or identification of the heads
mfg Posted January 15, 2015 Report Posted January 15, 2015 OK, I get it....I should have caught the word 'STAMPED'!
mfg Posted November 29, 2021 Report Posted November 29, 2021 Between 1966 and the early seventies, hundreds of Studebaker "6" and "V8" cylinder heads were shipped to Hurwich Iron in South Bend for disposal.....I wonder if any of the rare R3-R4 heads met their fate that way?.....Hopefully not, but I guess we'll never know!!!

I remember around 1971-1972 when you could buy V8 heads, NOS fenders, etc. at Hurwich for $10 each.
