Clark 530 Bobcat Rebuild

[Bobneedsparts]

I have an older Bobcat with only 1 clear marking on it (Clark 530) to indicate the make/model/year. To be best of my knowledge, it was built sometime around 1980 and the gasoline engine is a model K582-S. I am in desperate need of a cylinder head but have had zero luck tracking one down (even with the help of my local dealer). I also have a leaky carburetor that seems to be dumping too much fuel into the engine but this problem is secondary to the head issue. Any locating a new or used head help would be GREAT!!!

Thanks for the pointer! I ordered the head alone hoping it is the same for a K582 and a K582-S. The photo is an exact match so I'm guessing the difference may be HP. I thought mine was a 19HP. The advertisement for the head is for a 23HP... I also picked up a new float for my carb hoping that is the problem with a leak and too much fuel finding its way to the cylinder.
