Description

Used Genuine OEM Harley-Davidson Ironhead Sportster 1000cc Cylinder Heads Set. This matched front and rear assembly features the classic factory cast iron build configuration engineered exclusively for early 1970s overhead-valve Sportster powertrains.
Important Condition Core Note: This matching pair is being sold strictly as a rebuildable core lot or for garage decorative display. The heads exhibit heavy, uniform surface rust blooming across the outer cast iron cooling fins, lower combustion domes, and valve stems. The inner hemispherical combustion chambers display extensive, thick carbon soot cake and dry combustion scale crusting. The intake and exhaust valve ports carry typical internal powdery storage rust patches and carbon scaling along the guides. The upper rocker cover box mounting areas feature oxidized scaling but retain straight, usable structural paths. Two vintage spark plugs remain installed in the ports to protect the internal thread tunnels from stripping out during long-term storage.
Please note that this listing is for exactly 1 matching front and rear Ironhead cylinder head pair core assembly as pictured. Rocker boxes, intake manifolds, and installation gaskets are not included.
