Default Robin 295 MCI head

Does anyone have a cylinder head off a Robin 295 MCI engine? I have a Robin 350 MCI and want to swap heads for more compression.

Oh we got tons of 'em but all of them are bad as in the valves are sinking into the soft material. Not sure why, but they must have made the MCIs out of softer aluminum or something.

All these engines sink the intake vales in head. Pre MCI and MCI'S . I just buy new intakes, lap them in and it is good to go. The valve seats are normally good. The exhaust valves don't do this. Just intakes. Made of soft material

They seem softer on MCI for some reason, at least from experience. If we got one where one or more valves 'change adjustment' randomly it's an MCI. Maybe the way the exhaust is designed weakens it or something?

Nickdalzell, what would you want for 1 of the heads you have? Would you be willing to ship it also?

Not familiar with the industrial carts but it looks older that 2004, sure it's an MCI motor?

StoveBolt, it is a 2005 when I looked up the serial # also looked at the motor from other descriptions and it matches a MCI motor.

We send the complete engines in as cores to our rebuilder so sorry, we can’t sell the parts off them.

Is anyone able to provide a side by side pic or a pic of each head by themselves so I can see what exactly i'm looking for when searching Ebay and online. Along with the sellers description i'd like to at least know the picture i'd be looking at is of the right part and not just taking their word for it. Even on Ebay I can't seem to find a 295 MCI head and not even online with a generic and specific search.
