High Comp. Heads?? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

I read the FAQ's which say that you can use 1959-65 220Sb
(body 111/2) or a 1965-68 230S sedan (body 111/1A) heads, but are these the only ones that bolt to an m180 and what compression ratio do they make? Also, i want to go to propane soon, do these heads have sodium filled valves like the m180? TIA

hmmmmm.... this just came up elsewhere so I had info to pull from.

there it was mentioned ratios like 9,0:1 for I think the MB 230 and 8,7:1 for the MB 220. It was also mentioned that another half of the battle was matching water passages.

I'll try to clarify things and check on the sodium too.
