C cruiser54 NAXJA Forum User Location Prescott, Az Dec 9, 2013 #2 Yes. But what are you going to do after that?
C crofoot NAXJA Forum User Location woodinville wa Dec 10, 2013 #3 I am buying a 97 with a bad head and already have a 89 parts rig with a good head.Also have heard of bad castings in the 94-97 heads so if it will work I would like to use the 89 head.
