We believe the switch to round head gasket holes was in early to mid 1952, at the same time as the head was revised to accept 3/4" spark plugs. Since many T-Types have had the head replaced by now, and XPAG heads are interchangable in most instances, one cannot be sure that the the cylinder head on the car is original. Best way to check obviously is to remove the cylinder head. Cylinder heads with the oval or banana water holes should have a casting number of 22952, cylinder heads with the round water holes should have a casting number of 168422.
