Default swapping cylinder head

I've got a 350cc block that needs cyl. head repairs. I have a good 295cc head complete with valves, ready to go. Will the 295cc head work on the 350cc block without changing anything from the 295cc setup??? Thanks for any help

Yes a 295 head will go right on a 350 but it does raise the compression quite a bit and from what I have read will give around an extra 5hp over the stock 350.

This is exactly the answer I was lookin for. Thanks. One more thing... Is there anything else to change with this upgrade or can I just bolt the head on and go?? I've never tried this before so any help is greatly appreciated. Also do I need to use the 350 carb or the 295??

From what I have read the carbs for a 350 and 295 are the same except for the jet that is in them.

I realize if you have a 350 carb obviously that is the one you would want to use.

The reason I am really asking though is I just purchased a 350 short block and a 295 that tossed a rod that I am going to combine for my cart to replace the 295 that is in there. The one issue that I have right now is I have the carbs off of both 295's but I dont have the carb that came with the 350 so I will need to convert one of the 295's which I thought could be done with a jet change from what I have read. Is this not correct? Not trying to be a smart a$$ about any of this just trying to figure out what I need to do for my build when I get to it in a couple months.

Your not a smart a$$ . From what I have gathered from this web site is the carbs are the same except for the jet size.

You must be the lucky winner of taj266's engine parts lot that was listed in the parts for sale section about 2-3 weeks back.
