head question, need opinions Options

[rcrgrl]

so, finally going to do something with my 2.0 heads. getting new valve seats, probably new valves, and welding those wonderful cracks at each spark plug hole.
but now am having second thoughts, perhaps i should have just gotten new aftermarket ones - they were from brazil or some place?

what'd you guys think - did i do the right thing keeping the original ones?

The aftermarket heads that are currently available are not 2.0 914 heads. They do not have the right spark plug angle, they do not have the right number of intake studs, the chamber shape is different, as are the ports.

The Raby heads (which I don't think are availble separately yet?) may be better in many ways. But they still aren't 2.0 heads.

Unless you're lucky enough to find an NOS set sitting on a shelf somewhere, you won't find new 2.0 heads anywhere.
