Servicable 61030 Cylinder Head wanted. Please do not offer up a warped or non servicable head as I will be paying shipping for you to send it directly to machine shop that will be rebuilding my motor. Head needs to be complete with all valves, springs, rockers etc...

I have a 61030 head I threw a rod in my engine and doing a swap. The #6 Rod came out block. Looking at it looks like a rebuilt head with primerpaint. The #6 exhaust valve could be bent doesn’t look like it is seating I tried to take picture. I bought this Fj40 back in March and only got about 50 miles before rod. Just let me know what you think just parting out engine

Man sorry to hear that. What was the reason for the engine throwing a rod? I'll call the machinist on Monday and get his opinion on the head that went through a major crash like that. Sorry I cant be more definitive than that. Thanks.

pretty sure issue with rod bearing. I think someone didn’t check clearance on rods and was a little too much and lost oil pressure. I will take out the #6 valves and take some pictures. Rocker arms look good will take some Picts of that as well. The block # shows like a 76. Any other parts you might need? Since I was missing roof, doors and back doors I adding a 5.3. This was to be my retirement project in a few years but... I may look for another later and keep it original. Just let me know.
