How many pre-war Siata heads?



What do you say about that. A good old friend picked up this Siata 500 head (#1628) from an online fleemarket in the former eastblock. You won't be surprised to learn that it is part of a pre-war tuning kit for the Fiat 500 Topolino. We understand these were made from 1937 up to 1942. One was presented on these pages some time ago. And when you search google images with Fiat-Topolino-Siata you'll find a large selection barchettas and funny prototypes. The Siata head is however not always visible as detailed as now. Enjoy the sideview and click the picture above to see how it looks from the other side. We just started to wonder how many of these were made. 1628? Or? Anybody of you owns or drives a car with the Siata 500 kit?

Hello,
I am looking for a SIATA cylinder head on sale or on loan.
Indeed, I am passionate about the fiat 500 topolino or simca 5 and I am a metrologist so I want to measure it fully by scanning and potentially by tomography and then remanufacture it if possible.
Thank
Sincerelly

Topolinos were supposedly assembled in India. Though there were plenty running around, there are relatively few survivors because the aluminium heads corroded leading to the cars becoming irreparable and being scrapped. New replacement heads would have been very welcome a couple of decades ago.
