Tom,
What i said was: If it's an (36cc) A87 or (39cc) W53 (Stanza PA10) which may
not have been all that clear.
Here's a list of popular head on Aussie models
36cc A87 or 210 head was from the 1600 L16;
36cc 219 was L16 SSSS (always an A87 closed chamber? think so but not 100%
sure);
39cc W53 head was from the Stanza L16;
41cc A87 or V912 was from 610 L18 and 610 L18 SSS; and rare Japanese 710 L18
SSS;
45cc U67 and some other #'s that aren't important were from L20B.
regards
Terry
