I have just been given a couple of center plug bantam heads and was told they are by george todd ,they both have very different squish chambers. One is quite a shallow and the outher one has a sort of bell shaped squish. Can anyone enliten me as to what i've got and will these help my D/14 trials. I suspect they are more hi-comp than standard.

Hi,
The squish head one (right in your picture) was one of my own racing specials,
while I cannot quite recall what the left hand one was for; clearly bantam of course, but after all these years I'm a bit foggy on this
It was certainly made in the late 60s, 'cos I left the country in 72...
I'm astonished that these thing are still around
Good luck
George Todd (now 83)

Hi George Todd here again, on second thoughts the GT100 head in left hand picture, is almost certainly too high compression ration for a trials Bantam.
The other cylinder head is definitely one of my racing specials...
Cheers,
