There is a difference in the 29 head and the 30. Never see them on eBay. What is a good 29 head worth??? And a 30???

There is a recent thread on page 2 about heads and their availability and worth. It is titled "need a replacement head for a 195 engine" All your questions are answered.

To answer Gene's question....yes the location for the temperature gauge sending unit is different on a 1930 cylinder head than on a 1929 cylinder head.
