Re: Cyl Heads-Navarro vs Edelbrock or Offenhauser
Here are pics of a 5 main 4 banger girdle and crank and a 3 main 8ba girdle.
The intermediate caps go on from the top on the 5 main one.(no webs in the block) The cost of these is whatever you can get it done for. I don't know of anyone that is making them for sale. Everything I do on these engines is public info and has been run. I want to perpetuate the sport. If I get beat, I will just have to figure out something new for next time. Been there done that.

Re: Cyl Heads-Navarro vs Edelbrock or Offenhauser
Didn't correctly type what I was asking...the cylinder head number (i.e. 425, 400, 375, etc.) sometimes stamped near the water outlet opening on some heads. guess the valve to cylinder head clearance was more appropriate to ask.

Re: Cyl Heads-Navarro vs Edelbrock or Offenhauser
I am fixing the CNC program right now. After using my same CNC guy for 12 years I trusted him and his guys got lazy. I am fixing the problem now and will not let it go on.

Re: Cyl Heads-Navarro vs Edelbrock or Offenhauser
Hey Mike - I know you and your commitment to what we do. Thanks for taking the time to review this thread and take action - really says a lot.
Every single company/person that produces products understands the challenges of production and quality control - there are always fights to be had. We appreciate you taking this on and communicating on this thread. My very first set of heads were from Barney Navarro (45 years ago) and my latest set of heads are Navarros - it is important that we keep his legacy (and yours) intact. Quality, commitment and performance are everything . . . as always. 1975 - Antique Nats - 284 Flathead (and I won my class with them!): 1934Ford-4Door-EngineRear.jpg What a young long-hair! 1934Ford-4Door-Angle copy.jpg 44 years later . . . my latest 284 Flathead: 13719494_10153740475862864_8626741441507731759_o copy.jpg Last edited by Bored&Stroked; 05-24-2019 at 11:37 PM. |

Re: Cyl Heads-Navarro vs Edelbrock or Offenhauser
That is a great chart to have! Worth printing out and laminating in my Flathead books.

Re: Cyl Heads-Navarro vs Edelbrock or Offenhauser
Thanks for giving an insight to what is considered cutting edge for these old motors. I'm just pleased to get one running at all! I feel humbled by the knowledge shared here.
