No this is not off of a Hudson. If you show the other side is it showing 4 chambers?
Hudson did not have any engines directly carbureted through the head like this.

After looking at some of you guys pics,I didn't think it was either.
It fits some kinda straight 6.There are 6 chambers under it.
Maybe a Merc or a Ford?I'll post it around the net.
I have lots of different pics.
Thanks,Bobb.

No problem when looking at it again its a flat top inline, trying to think of who used finned heads and twin carbs on a six like this. Any casting marks on it? Could be a aftermarket head.

I really appreciate the help.
I have 8 pics but I'll just post 2 more so I don't eat up all the bandwidth.

Ok looking at the pics I see its an Edmunds finned head. This is good news as cleaned up this head will probably sell very well on ebay as Edmunds period speed equipment is very sought after. So now lets figure out what its from.

Ok after asking the boys over at CCF they think its a Nash head as they had carb in head on their engines. Another guy wants to know if its for sale and how much.

A Nash???????
Is that cool or what?
I wouldn't have a clue as to its worth.
The wife has been on me to sell that 'junk'. I kinda like lookin at these intakes.
Funny how out of all her 'stuff',none of it is 'junk'.

Do you want me to give your email address to the guy that is interested in it then you guys can figure it out from there?
Vintage speed equipment is pretty popular those aluminum heads polish up really nice.

I'd greatly appreciate that.
I think I put it in my profile.
I'd make it worth your effort.
This is my other girl...

Sent along your info. I do not need anything happy to help out. Just seeing vintage speed equipment is good enough for me.
Do you have any vintage cars or tools?
