i'm lookin at heavily modifying a head for my 2.7, however dont wanna take mine of the road to do it, so i'm lookin at gettin a spare head,
would a head from an early(jetronic) car be interchangable?

Has it got the dizzy on the end of the cam shaft ?

The 323 head might fit, but i dont know how it would run, different valve sizes, different compresion ?
