Thanks Bob! Larger scans are great, can help walk you through if needed. Purdy Swoft was collecting Simmons (this is a head he graciously sold), he may have more info on identification too. I'm always learning, not sure what happened on the water neck, light file and checked both with a straightedge, paper gasket with light silicone and used the paper matchsticks. Popped right after torque, maybe it was just its time to go. Just silicone next.
Cracked the Simmons Carbs apart, thats this weeks challenge.
Painting the head red... what happens if just paint the whole truck?
