I have a 1971 280SE/A with vin # 108 018 12 071273. The engine block # 130 980 12 053213 and head # 130 016 08 01 280 SE/A.
I bought a cylinder head from a junk yard and upon receiving via UPS, I found that the number stamped on the head was "180 016 29 01 230"
Can this head be mated to my engine block? What car is the head from? I provided the information above to the junk yard and they said that the head was compatible with my year.
Did I get the wrong part here?
Any feedback will be appreciated.
