[WANTED] Single J head or equivalent

[Professor Fate]

Just throwing this out there- Looking for a single early J-type head (small valve, and without the extended air injection pad on the exhaust) in decent shape. Would rather not ship, so SE Wisconsin area preferred for pick up. Anybody got any singles out there?

I have a rough bare casting one in the south west burbs of chicago...

Does it have to be a J hear or something similar???

Just J "type"... could be U or unmarked or whatever. Don't need Xs. The main thing is the exhaust port pads. The reason I'm looking for a single head is that I had 308s with the extended pads for the air injection ports, and I needed to do a bit of grinding on mine for exhaust manifold clearance (ported early A manifolds) on the lower pad for the #7 port, and I hit a water jacket (VERY close to the surface, might have been due to excessive core shift, but now I'm gun shy). Trashed a perfectly good 308. Was hoping to find an early version J that still had the shorter pads on the mounting face, so I wouldn't have to grind.

I do have a J head, just the casting, but it needs some clean up...

Price? Pic if possible would be nice, especially of the ex. port... SW Chicago isn't bad, I do get down there occasionally. I'm just west of Milwaukee.
