I have an early, unserialized CI head. I don’t recall issues specific to the early prod runs, though I know some heads have had pushrod geometry issues depending on the run.

Anyone know something I don’t?
 
I haven't seated it on a block yet, So I have no idea of the alignment ATM. But yeah, that was the post I was thinking of, where they sleeved the pushrod hole. that's a thing I hope I don't run into. I need some work on it, I just want to verify any issues to remediate all at once rather than make several trips to the shop.
 
I bought a cylinder head back in 2008. Been On car for about 10k.. No issues. You must have had one of the very first cylinder heads. I do not recall anything about pushrod geometry issues.. I do know classic inlines Valves, that they sold with head, were not long enough, causing you to use 1.5 rockers or buy longer valves to accomadate different rockers.. Also the single springs that came with heads were not good, and came with no spring seats...
