Afternoon all,

I have bought a job lot of Triumph spares from a friend of mine, and there are two cylinder heads stamped 'TKC1156' which I believe is a Dolomite 1300 Unleaded head. Other than the unleaded aspect, would this be an upgrade for my standard 13/60 cylinder head, 515573.

Is the Dolomite head considered an upgrade, in terms of valve sizes, port flow etc?

Some of the parts I'll be selling, but some of them will be used on my own car too - Lots of engine, trim and mechanical stuff etc.

 1968 Mk1 2000 w/ 2.5 - Alex's old car, very nice... just needs fettling!
1962 Vitesse 6 - Slammed, caged, rusty, tatty, disgusting, the dogs doo-dahs.
1970 Herald 13/60 - Not much left of it at all.
1960 Herald 1200 - It's a rolling chassis and that's about it!

1988 BMW E30 320i 2 Door - New daily driver, too much of a bargain to refuse. Donald Healey's old car!

1978 Reliant Scimitar GTE - New project for me and Brother!
1970?/1988 Ginetta G4/4 - BINNED IT - Bought It - Rebuilding It!

Hi Jon - have a look at the attached picture.  I copied it some years back from a post on Sideways. Click on the image and you'll get a full size one.  If you can't read the edges (my camera is not that good) then let me know.
