Just finished replacing a blown head gasket on our 27 depot hack and noticed the head to be cast aluminum.
The head has the Ford logo on it.
Did ford make an aluminum head or should I assume the head to be an aftermarket item?
Thank you
Model T Aluminum head ?

Re: Model T Aluminum head ?
If a cast letter ‘Z’ is on front water outlet, that’s a Z head. Modern part. Model T’s have iron cylinder heads.
