Hi everyone, I have been offered a pair of NOS 2.0 heads but I do not know what to look for. I don't need them but if you folks think they are cheap and good then I would buy them and store them for any future use/need.
I have got photos of them on my phone but I cant put the image here. The person selling them is a friend of a friend. Details on the box STUECK 923 104 016 00 Stamped on the heads - 039.101.371A with VW symbol Sellers says these are the later style heads with the air injection port in exhaust port and he says they have more meat under the exhaust seat. He is wanting USD$1400 for the pair. What do you guys think please? thanks Steve |

It should be remembered that 2.0 heads are some what a consumable item, All aircooled vw heads for that matter.
Cracks from the plugs, cracks under the exhaust seats due to the head having no short turn and little support, cracks are fairly common. Repaired heads are repaired heads. No one re heatreats heads after welding heads, because of the expense of removing seats guides etc. So repaired heads are usually soft. Genuine Vw/Porsche heads have always been sold bare, Valve train parts are in a seperate section of the parts manual, well atleast that was my experience working at my Dads Vw dealership back in the day. http://www.autoatlanta.com/porsche-parts/h...;section=113-00 Same part, $995USD each +$500 core charge (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sheeplove.gif) Don'nt be a sheep! I rest my case (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif) |
