Is this what I think it might be?

Or is it just a random casting designation.
Both 68-74 heads on this 318 are the same casing number.

That's an X. Is that what you thought?

Dont get confused between the G spot and X spot

Yep, that's what I thought.
I was wondering if it could be an X head, but castings show 68-74 318 with 60cc chambers.
Just curiosity more than anything.

I was also kinda wondering why it's there on one head and not the other when they both have the same casting number.

Smart A's

318 X-heads. Now we seen them all! BTW, the X would be next to the spark plug hole on an "X-head"

Yes, but what do they call the dot on top of an "i"?









A "tittle"
