I'll play devil's advocate and ask- other than cosmetically- how remarkable is it?
did you put solvent into the combustion domes while the head was upside down? No leaks, i suppose... for less than half that price you can get great mustang head, but it's not made of metal  ..................... "Climate change is no longer science. It's politics...

I'm saying if you're going to call it remarkable/excellent- it better be.
Just good looking don't cut it. The leak test I suggested is the bare minimum. Unless you're going to go all through it and check stuff out why not just offer it as a "core " head. Or offer it as "condition unknown- possibly rebuilt"( since you say it does look excellent). ..................... "Climate change is no longer science. It's politics...

the main reason the price may be that high is that its a part many restorers may want - how many classic mustand straight 6 heads have you seen? i searched ebay and other sights with no luck so i figure i may have a nice peice here.
i think it was actually rebiult because there seems to be no wear on any of the components - but there is no way i know for sure since i just "found" it |

I think there were 4 flavors of the stright six that FOrd offered:
144, 170, 200 , 250 CI displacements- depending on what year. POssibly the heads were different as well. I found a company down in OZ that seems to know something about hopping up the L-6. Possibly they whould have further info on identifying what you have- if you're curious. http://www.fordsix.com/tech/engine/crossflow/xflow.php There's even a "FORD 6 " forum w/ 5700 users  .....................

most of those flavors were offerered for the falcon first and not many were carried long into the mustangs life. a 200cid (the same as our 3.3 liters) and a 260. The 200 was only around for one or two years as it was real unpopular. later models went to a 250 and 300.
thanks for that forum link |
