Larry,
I've done a few Bs, myself, Larry. My memory is that they use the same
size as the A series. Now, I don't consider my memory to be infallible,
and the last B I did was about 10 years ago.
Hopefully, someone with a post-'67 B handy can check it out for us. If
not, I've got a few sitting around that I can check tomorrow after work.

Actually, Bud, where it came from is from personal experience of
plugging 3
different B-series heads with exactly 7/16 - 20 X 1/2 hex-head plugs.
Before my post I double checked my memory by going out to the garage and
looking at the bag from Fastenal that contains the remainder of the ones
I
bought.
Now, I cannot report from personal experience on the A-Series, but the
B-Series is most definitely 7/16-20.
If you still think I'm wrong, try a B-Series and report back.

Nope. The B series head uses the same size as the A series.
Dunno where the idea of 7/16 x 20 came from. 7/16" is a pretty damn big
hole, actually. FAR too large for an air injection nozzle on a
small-bore engine like an A or B series.
