I came across a man on ebay selling a Fuchs wheel that mentioned that he had "a bunch of crap in boxes" from a long closed Porsche dealership. We spent the afternoon sorting through the boxes of parts to find the golden egg - a pair of NOS 2.0L heads. I posted most of the other NOS parts that we are selling in the For Sale forum.

Wow! What an incredible find! I wonder how many of those NOS heads are left. Auto Atl had a pair years ago. At the time George said he wouldn't sell them for $3000.00
If you leave them the way they are and just sit on them, they will probably bring a better return than a 401K!
If you decide to use them I would replace the valve seats. Modern seats with a tighter fit will protect your fine investment.
Great find! Congratulations!

The heads are pre 1990 as the dealership closed then. I am considering having them completed with new parts. Last ones I saw for sale were from Pelican at $2285 per head. I doubt I will ever see another pair like these. Thanks fo the tip on the seats.
