Hi guys
Can any one help?
The cylinder head on my 1924 [490] is beyond repair. Does any one know of were i can get another one from. Will a 1928 head fit apart from the exhaust manifold? would i be able to make it fit to get me on the road till i can get the right one.

The 4 cylinder head gaskets are the same from 1916 to 1928 and the head bolts are also the same. A 1927 or earlier head would save you any exhaust changes.

The 490 model ran from 1916 to 1922, so your car (1924)would be a Superior model and not a 490.
