This head will most likley have come from a 1300 GT like the old morris 1100 shape!

this will make an excellent candidate for turbo application if modified corretley!

As it is machined flat across the thermo housing it is indeed an earlier head.
Rumour has it tha the later 12G940 heads with the cast area near the thermostat have better waterways inside.

agreed tom, they are also far easier to port as well

the lions share of the work has been cast in position as standard
