Hi Walt, I have a dumb question, I have never seen a 59ab with heads like that, it looks like they say Edmunds but what's with the water outlets forward like an 8ba? Ken

Look like Edmunds 8BA heads on 59AB , a very popular thing to do .... = any 8BA heads on a 59AB

Yea there Edmunds 8ba heads, but we had a problem after starting and run a little while, had a leak in one cyl, the head was junk had a crack inside, they had a hard life, milled a lot, some one installed heads nut with out flat washers, buggered top of heads, should of had them spot faced but wouldn't help inside. Wound up installing a new set of Edelbrock. Walt
