Tim,
Unfamiliar with such. Could you describe or place pics here to help with your question, i.e.- flathead/OHV head what and condition, compression ratio, etc///

There's a lot of flatheads & overhead conversions that I've never heard of! Bill W's Ghost

Yup, I live over there when I need a bit of eye candy and am in a dreaming mood of yesteryear

Thanks Ghost,
I lost track of that site and and got a "Could not find" message with the link you gave. It was close enough though and I found it under www.nwvs.org.

I also have one in my collection. My personal opinion is the value is probably in the $500.00 range. It is not as popular as what a Winfield head would be but then the rarity makes up for that in my views. It is just where your priorities are placed.
This a very late response to my own thread, I did buy the Rallum head and it has been sitting in my garage since I first posted. I shot a few pictures of it to place it up for sale but though I would post here first. tim

How can you tell the compression ratio of a head sitting on the bench?

Screw in a spark plug, buy a CC tube, fill it with sugar, then pour it into the combustion chamber to see how many CC's it takes to make it level. Compare that to an original head.
