SC Case Heads

tomfg · Oct 12, 2012

Will any of the SC Case heads work on my 41 SC?
How about the high compression heads? Did they have different pistons as well?
I'm going to get a quote from an engine machinist on rebuilding my head, but depending on the price, I may look for a head in better shape that I use / fix up myself.
Thanks, Tom

Both the 5618 low compression head and the 5617 high compression will fit your 1941 SC. I have a 1941 SC that I changed to the high compression head. There is a rebuilt 5618 head on eBay right now priced at $180.00. About 2 months ago I was charged $433.00 to rebuild a 5617 head and all the valved were new when I took it in. That was a super ouch!

Thanks for the information. Good to know either head would work. One would be taking a chance I suppose buying a used head with "condition unknown" on EBay...... might cost $250 bucks to get it by the time you pay shipping, and it may still need extensive work. .... such is life!
