LC, I believe the head from any A or B will fit and work. However the primary differences in the different heads were in the combustion chambers. The distilate head has a lower compression ratio and different combustion chamber shape. There was the regular head for gasoline with a higher compression ratio and I believe, although I am not sure on the A & B, that there was a high altitude head with a even higher compression ratio. As previously stated, I believe any will fit although the power output will vary according to the compression ratio. Harold H
