Hello I’m wondering if anybody knows if you can fit a 1500 head to a mk4 spitfire recessed 1300 engine as I’m hoping to give the car a bit more pep and my plan is to port a cylinder head do unleaded conversion and fit larger valves and springs however I don’t have the money to do it in one go so I intended to build the head independently so once I’ve finished it I can bolt it on with a cam and matched valve spring and from a quick look iv realised that 1500 heads are easier to find and cheaper than 1300 heads and so if you wouldn’t mined is 1) can you run a 1500 head on a recessed mk4 spitfire 1300 and 2) if you can are there any benefits of the 1500 head over the 1300
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you both for the advice apon reading what you have said I will try to get another mk4 spitfire head and iv already put springs in the current head as I not to long ago replaced the head gasket and laped the valves and discovered one of my springs had cracked in 3 and the springs I replaced it with were a set matched for a mild fast road cam thank you once again for your advice
