Hondamatic engine trivia question.
« on: September 07, 2015, 11:38:42 AM »
  I have a 750A engine. The head is marked K7. Is this a 392 or a 410 head? If it is a 410 head, can it be used on a standard shift 750 Engine? I'm looking for a 410 head to have ported.

  I think I found the answer via search link. All K model's have a 392 head? Only the F2 or F3 have the 410? Does  this also aply to the Hondamatic 750's

As far as I know the 392 is 75/76f only.  Great head btw.  Says 392 on it.

  That's where I got the number. I have a 75 750FO. What's the 750A head called? Are they the same as the K model's? Are they  better head? Inquiring minds want to know!

35 MPG, that is not good, but I did think it was as low as that.

 I was under the impression the cb750A's had smaller valves.
