Cylinder head for K241-K301-K321
There was some dicussion a while back on the different cylinder heads for the K241-K301-K321 motors. Here is what each different head looks like.
High compression/LP head:  An easy way to tell if you have if you have this style head is heart shape area in the valve area and a flat spot below the spark plug. This head was found early K241 motors. Low compression head:  This head like the high compression/LP head has the spark plug in same area. The area above the valves does not have the heart shape like the High compression/LP head does. There is a valley/low spot below the spark plug. Spark plug above the exhaust style head:  Biggest advantage to this style head is having a better fuel burn compared to the other style heads. The valve pockets are bigger so there is clearance for bigger exhaust valve in some of the K301-K321 motors. The head in this picture will be going on a puller motor (stock class).

Thanks Merk for taking your time to provide this detailed information for us and educating everyone on the different types of heads. I encountered 3 different types of heads when I went shopping for one this past spring for my 107 and I really could have used this info back then when the guy asked me, "Which one do you want?" and I was left speechless, truly not knowing the difference. Now I do and so I am better prepared to take care of business and my GT's when I cross that bridge again!!! I really appreciate your time and expertise!!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
