Ppl,

A 219 head is a 36cc L16 SSS head and not a L18 SSS (41cc) as there really 
isn't such a thing - although there are at least 3 A87 heads ie small (1.1/4"), 
medium (1.3/8")and large (1.5") ports and the closest to a real L18 SSS head is 
a V912 which is a bit rare. Most Aussie L18SSS models had the 1.3/8" port head 
so that's the one you find fairly often at the wreckers.

regards
Terry
