ONLY THE 1968,1969(early) 510SSS HAD THE 219 HEAD.
Even the parts book says that,so get with the program....
I know a guy there with a 1969 510SSS he brought it brand new and it is still
brand new it has a A87 head and it's never been off or out of the engine bay.
But a SSS A87 is different from a stock A87..
The way to tell is the factory SSS A87 head looks like it has has a big plane
and the A87 number reads like this ^07 (it only half their).
FACT NOT FICTON
The 610 180BSSS got the V912 head in about 75ish on,but so did all the late L18
engines.
Same head new mold.
I belive in the USA their A87 heads were open camber but not here,all here are
peanuts,
Off hand I think the valves in the A87 are 44/38" Dont quote me."
