  I was in a frightfull hurry assembling the car so I don't recall how =
the valves looked and failed to take photos. I do know that it has shim =
type lifters. Does anyone know how to determine the head type by the =
casting numbers? Someone with a stock JH run out to the garage and write =
their numbers down for me will ya?

  thanx Ass-non 86 8v
