The old man has had Moggy Minors for as long as i can remember. I found a 12g295 standard, unmolested head in the shed a couple months ago - one to keep hold of i think! I'm told there may be one or two more hidden away also....:) |

funnily enough, its got a flat back (manifold face) whereas all the other 295s ive seen have the flange shaped rear? All mine are like 940s ie. flat. Edited by Vegard on 8th Dec, 2009. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

Joey, I have had 295s with both manifold faces. It does seem strange to have two different castings for the same head though. Does anybody know if there are any other differences? On 12th Nov, 2009 Paul S said:

Many years ago, when i was first getting into minis, i found one of these in the cupboard at home (my old man has always been into A35's so had loads of crap laying around that fitted!!) and took it upon myself to practice how much of the head you could cut before you hit the water chamber, I found the limits, then sectioned it on a power hacksaw........... my old man was pretty pissed when he found out that i took THAT head....... didnt really understand what it was at the time........i think he's just about forgiven me!!! And on the 7th day........... God created turbochargers! |
