Default Once more 'Ol Ron

Ron,
I'm doing some spring cleaning and found way too many 8ba type
heads. Any of these worth more than an anchor ?
8rt's.....EAC's.....8cm's.....8BA's
Gracias,
Charlie ny

I'm looking for a drivers side EAB. I'm converting it to an angled plug so I can run a Power tip plug. Already have the pass side done. Thanks for looking, but nobody want's to break up a pair. 8RT & Mercs are the anchors.

Yes, mill it .050 after checking for clearance.

Hmmm, I've got several sets of 8CM and EAC Merc heads. Maybe someone needs them for a restoration. Hate to just scrap them.

I believe the 8CM's have a pretty large combustion chamber volume. Good for use with a blower???

I wish someone around here had parts they wanted to "get rid of". I always like extra parts.
