Before you order ask Barry about the heads.
I don't think we would sell garbage they do trade on their reputation.


What about that bloke over in Wales?
He does some engine swaps apparently.
Could be worth seeing if he has any 2.4's lying around?

The only 2.4s that come here are dead 2.4s.

Want to keep its filthy dieselness. Where the feck can I get a 2.8 head from? Dont wany a crappy 2.4 one really.

[muddle]

This isn't the 'uprated' 2.4 one but says it's the 3l one so surely its uprated?

I know what you mean.
Who in their right mind wants one of those namby pampy petrol engines.
Next you will be saying that you want a third gen.

Petrol Surfs are the future, just look at what engines are in the majority of the exporter's Surfs in Japan at the moment.

As long as my dirty diesel keeps chugging along I am happy to stick with compression ignition, however that is not to say that I don't have a slowly growing fund for a 1UZ-FE transplant.



No doubt this may well be one thread resurrected in the future.....

That is pretty cheap and delivered.

I wonder why????

[muddle]

This is the confusion, yes it is cheap, compared to a 2.4 one. But it is a 3l one so even if it's a bit of a crap 3l one, surely it's better than a good 2.4?

This is cheap, worth putting in your watch list.

Gman.

Any way of properly confirming wether it's a 3.0 or a 3l?

It's a 3L, 2.8 Ltr head. Hope he has not bent those valves having it sitting on them.

Cool, but I just realised, it ends in 18 hours and I dont have the cash......

So back to the one I posted in the link, eBay 2.8 head....... Would it be better or as good as a new 2.4 one. Bearing in mind a new 2.4 RT one is double the price!
