[urq] WX Head Options

[Brandon Rogers]

KH is a bolt on but remember is uses hydraulic lifters - unlike solid on
WX.  Stock KH cam is supposed to suck.  Way back when I put a KH on the
urq - and had a WX cam reground by Delta to 268/270 specs for hyd
lifters.  Ran great (all CIS issues aside of course).  Plus you run the
possibility of needing to buy 10  new lifters...

If you can get a _good_ WX head stick with that - IMO

Well, 

I have the head that came off my car ... I think it was a KH that had
been ported and polished ... I can take another look at it if you're
really interested ... I suspect there is a broken valve spring ... yours
for the cost of shipping ... 

I have the original WX head from my car, another lister has dibs on it
... perhaps you can convince him to let you have it.  This was reworked
and ran, but the #2 exhaust valve failed ... I had it reworked, should
be ready to go.

I also have what I was told was the last bare casting in the USA ...
bought it from Carlsen back when Didi was there ... I paid for it so I
will want to get at least some of what I paid back for it ...

Let me know if you're interested in any of the above ... and if you want
pix let me know ...

Now, for my urQ, it is no help right now. So back to plan A, find a
suitable WX engine.
