MG TD TF 1500 - Need an early cylinder head

My banana head collapsed around a water port due to rust through. I'm looking for a bare banana head. I'd prefer one that hasn't had any modifications to the intake/exhaust port since this will be race ported and I can't put metal back. I have valves, springs, rockers, etc.

Kurt. I have one, but it has been shaved quite a bit. I believe it also has had the intakes pointed.

It was built for a supercharged motor, but it never was run.

I can take pictures and measurements for you if you want to take a look at it.
Bruce Cunha

Bruce, I'm very interested. I'm not too concerned about shaving, mine was into the spark plug hole a bit. Can you send pictures of the combustion face and ports. Here's mine.

If none of the others suit your needs, I have one that has been skimmed quite a bit and the intake standoffs removed. I was told it came off a highly tuned engine but I don't know exactly what was done other than the obvious. Also several round hole heads including one with repairable cracks that has never been skimmed. Cheap.
