Description
This is a pair of original GM cylinder heads for a Big Block Chevy Engine. The casting number on each head is 3919840. These heads are the high performance version with rectangular intake ports and closed combustion chambers. These heads were used by GM on late 1967-1969 L78 396/375HP, L71 427/435HP, and 427/425HP(450HP) L72 engines which were used on Yenko and COPO cars. This head was also used as a direct replacement for casting numbers 3856208, 3873858, 3904391, and 3964291. What a rare find!These heads are complete with valves, springs, retainers, locks, guide plates, and rocker studs. These heads just came out of an estate where they had been in dry storage since the 80's. The heads were removed in good working condition when GM aluminum L88 heads were added to the engine. The heads have been cleaned, stripped of paint, and checked for cracks with none found. The valves sizes are 2.19 inch intake valves and 1.88 inch exhaust valves. The ports are still stock size with some smoothing/deburring of the casting as shown. All threads are in good condition with no thread inserts or helicoils. The heads are a true matched pair with casting dates of F 17 8 and F 18 8 as shown. These dates decode as June 17th and 18th, 1968.
These heads are being sold as good cores for rebuilding. These original 3919840 heads have become very hard to find. Don't miss this nice date matched pair.
