Alum. Cyl. Head Help

edited November -1 in HUDSON
I was given a spare Hudson engine for my '51 Hornet project. I have a 308 Twin H now but decided another motor couldn't hurt. When I went to pick it up I noticed it has an aluminum head on it. Can anyone tell me how I can tell what this motor is (size) or where the numbers are located at. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

    If it has a double web along the bottom of the block as in the gold one, it's a 308.



    If not, it's either a 232 or a 262

    If that aluminum head says H-145 on it, that's the standard head for the Hornets in '51.
  • turn it in with your aluminum cans and get a cast iron head, bill albright
