I can see from the castings of the heads, wheres you babybottles? nice exposed look, but you are right YOU ASSummed they were what you were told. These are late 37-8up, dont have enough close up shots here to tell for sure to see if they have dimples or plugs,etc. these might not even be 61ci heads, needmore pics uplclose in focus. Just because your FRIENDS BIKE is LIKE YOURS DOESNT MEAN THEY ARE CORRECT! you need to do your homework more.

The baby jars are there, I just removed the covers so you can see how much oil is coming out of the rocker shaft. They are drilled for primer plugs. 36 and 37 heads have different shaped towers that the rocker arm shafts go into, and anyone who knows about early knuckleheads can easily tell that they are correct from the right side. The bike is a 97 point A.M.C.A. Junior first bike. I think you need to do your homework

too bad those heads are NOT 36 HEADS~!

whats not 36 about them. I was under the assumption that they were right for a mid series 36EL. They are exactly the same as one of my friend's original paint 36s that is 20 serial numbers away from mine.

I just wanna know when your bringing that bike out to Cali, I want to judge it myself and see if it really is a 97 point bike. ; ) Although knowing you it's probably as close as you can get it to being a full 100 points.
