    I did a search and found nothing. I need pictures of riley 4 banger heads like this one

    http://www.museumofamericanspeed.com/Collections/Engines/RileyE142.shtml

    I need some pics of ones actaully being run on cars. I will be doing a model of a model t and will be replicateing such a head for the 4 banger but cant find any good pics. Any help would be great.
     
  2. Don't the Revell A kits have a Riley set up (would be similar at least)?

    Honestly, the pics on Speedy Bill's site are about as good as you'll find, but another place you can look is nwvs.org.

    The head in the picture from Speedy Bill's museum is a 4 port Riley. The head that Charlie Yapp sells is a two port Riley.
    Here is a 4 port:

    hey some close up shots of yours before bolt on would be great. Im going to be doing this head in 1/16th scale so its not as small as 1/24-25. Thanks for the help so far
