Default Re: Headers

C69A engine is a post war Canadian offering. Casting has real thick cylinder walls; a good candidate for big bore flatties...The deck has a slightly different layout coolant hole wise, than regular C59A's. Still takes center outlet heads. Crankshaft has double oil holes, similar to 8BA, but ran early style rods, notched to accept lock in shell bearings. These are now impossible to find, however, can be substituted for regular floaters, alternatively one can use 8BA rods and bearings on that crank. These engines ran one piece valve guide assemblies, mostly using valve rotator assemblies. Some 69's have hardened ex valve seat inserts.
