This is a description of a modified M-151 head done for a customer of  ours that
has ask us to sell it for him. The  modification was done in January of 2001 and
worked very well, unfortunately the engine it was installed on was a high  
mileage block that eventually lost compression in two of the four cylinders. It  
still ran better than a stock engine by far, but he wanted more power. We  
eventually rebuilt another engine with a totally new head, header, and 2"  
exhaust with dual pipes after the muffler for him, now he's satisfied.
This Head and exhaust was obtained by otter  owner of Mutt motorpool in the summer of
2002 and intalled on his M151A2, for details of installation and test results

Custom applications such as this  are normally done on a
cost plus basis.
The picture above is of the header I fabricated for this application. It  utilizes 3/8" plate
stock for the header flange. 16 GA. Mandrel bent tubing  parts welded to form the
individual pipes forming the header. Upon installation  in the vehicle, we welded the
stock MUTT exhaust manifold flange on the shinny  portion, and cut the stock pipe and
re-welded the exhaust pipe flange to attach  to the header. That way all stock exhaust
parts for the MUTT could be used after  the header.
The picture above is the head with the header installed and the intake  manifold modified to
allow for heat transfer from the header to the air charge  in the intake manifold, making for better
running conditions when  cold.
The picture above illustrates the differences between the stock and  modified exhaust
(Header). As can be seen there is  ample room for the alternator, the pipe is in the
same location as the original,  and just above the bend is where the original flange is  
re-welded.
The picture above show's an original head with stock exhaust, and the new  
head with header. As you will notice the headers follows the same path as the  
stock exhaust.
The picture above show's our client's new engine and full header. He  wanted
more power, and he got it with this set-up. We didn't have this head done  by
BigIslandPerformanceCenter because of the time  constraints. We preformed
all of the welding, porting, and header building in  house, only the machine
work for milling the head and the valve job was done by  and outside firm.

set-up.

The  picture above show's the head just after painting, and ready for the
exhaust  manifold. The lower header bolts (supplied) require an anti-seize
compound on  the threads, to prevent them from seizing if removal is later
required, because  they are in contact with the water passage in the head.
