I'm looking for one for my '13, that has a clean crisp Ford script. The later ones seem to have gotten not so crisp. Can you post a better photo of that area?

My '13 head (1-11-13) has a really rough lettering on it - the Ford script is weak, and the Made in USA lettering has some run-togethers... Not sure if this is characteristic for that run, if the mould box got jostled on the way to being poured, or maybe the master for that mould was getting worn by then...

I've noticed on the underside of this head there's the number "3" stamped between the 2 and 3 cylinder bores... my late '15 block has the number "5" stamped in the same location... I'm wondering if it's a factory "proof mark" to show if they were milled after production or not...
