Does anyone know whether the old 850 heads used the 1 groove reatainer collets?

Im on the scrounge for some for my rimflows and im sure ive got an engine outside with them on.

They had the fat retainer ones. The ones in the middle:



I'm not sure if the engle inside the retainer is the same on the single ones and the fat ones. It is indeed different on the triple grooved ones, by a couple of degrees.

If they have that funny R clip on top, they're the middle ones. Of they look like normal A+ ones, they are probably the ones you need.

That's a very carefully worded description for the rimflow valve.

Ps If Benross cant find the collets let me know and I can sort you out.
