I am no expert on flatheads by any means, but I have never heard of, or seen a set of these heads before. IMG_3718.jpeg
Don’t know if this picture will come out. What’s the story behind these?

Hard to see from the pic, Ralph, what does it say on the heads?

RalphM · 06-14-2019, 02:13 AM

Sorry, had to copy on my phone.
Left head, S.A.E on one end, firing order on the other end.
I’ll show the other head if someone guesses it.

Maybe better?

A friend of mine just sent me the pictures of his newly built hot rod, and those are his heads. I had just never knew the company name, or heard of it in flathead discussions.

Be Nice to see what the chambers looked like??

Ralph, I know it's probably still daylight at 2:51 a.m. but ....

RalphM · 06-14-2019, 06:10 PM

Daylight all the time now! Beats the hell out of being dark all the time!

That brown/orange thing is the canister oil filter mounted to the head between #3 and #4 plugs.

Saw a set of those heads at Hershey a couple years ago. Couple young guys had them in their wagon, having just bought them.
