Default Best Head...

What is the best head design for the 242 4L. I am going to do an engine build and would like to use the best flowing most efficient design for a stock configured motor. (1993 Cherokee)

7120 or 0630


EDIT: ah since yours is a 93, the 7120 came stock on those years and it's one of desirable heads.

any preference between the 2? Mine has the 7120 if I end up with a 0630 are there any issues with it mating up to the intake or exhaust manifold?

Shouldn't be no issues. Only difference if I remember correctly is that the 7120 head got a hole already tapped on the rear of the head for temperature sensor
