Re: 842 BBC cylinder head ID.

Early '842 heads had plugs on each end. About mid-production 1969 went to one plug in one end only.

All '842 heads were closed chamber although I've seen
several sets with opened-up combustion chambers. I've
always been told these was done later on by owners to improve performance.
