F-heads

My brother is selling his set of F-heads. The heads were redone and are complete - casting number is 404 438 and the Julian date is 211 on both heads. He is asking $5500 for the set.

That's the casting NUMBER, not the date, and it's actually 404438 for "F" heads. Often the digits can get distorted during the casting process. Look closely.

Should be 211 and that is the earliest date F heads. Don't think they made a 311 date F head.

Thank you Joe, you were correct. I also entered the proper Julian date - 211.
