Problem Sorted!

that head looks different to other 4a heads ive seen.
it has the oil port and dizzy cam cap on your right hand side and a funky center part where the plugs go.
and i think the breather (head/block) port is normaly squarer.

either way, yes that hole goes down into the block but the nut would have landed on the splash tray in the sump.
have you got a telescopic magnet stick ?

i dont know what torque specs are for the cam caps, i just tighten them up to what i think is right

sorted out!

+1 for telescopic magnet..one of the most usefull tools you will ever buy

cam cap torque is generally only about 20-30ft/lb...but just do it with a spanner/ratchet..if you try torque with a torque wrench you'll snap the bolts. believe me!

What the hell is that? It also seems to be missing the distributor mounting point ... ? hard to see though.

That looks like an **FE type head, from the distributor mount on the end of the exhaust cam. It's not a 4AGE head, that's for sure.

That's all I can help.

It looks differant to both of the 4AGE bigport heads that are sitting right in front of me....

that is an "S" head... can't see enough to see which "S" head... but I have a 2nd gen 3SGTE head in my shop now and it looks just like that...........

I'm not sure what the torque specs are....... but I know they are in the factory manuals.... and there is a link to said manuals in toy mods... Don't guess... go to the source.
