Hey guys, I'm looking for a set of 2.0 heads and found these on ebay. Since I'm fairly new at this, what's your opinion on these?

Those are bus heads. You would be better off with a set of 1.8 liter heads. If you could get them for what the current bid is (66.00) then it would be ok. But other than that, they are lower compression heads and use the 4 bolt intakes. Nothing special

2.0 bus heads, and 2.0 914 heads are two different animals.

Yep, about as different as Night and day..
The relocated plug hole alone is good for 8-10% more power in my testing. Thats not to mention the more straight intake ports ad the fact that the 2.0 914 head is the only T4 head that is a 76% head right off the shelf. |

So Jake what is the going rate for a set of used 914 2.0 heads? No cracks, and ready to be rebuilt.

3-400 is a good price if they are unknown condition..

I was offered $500 for my 2.0 heads and turned them down.....just too hard to find decent ones....I'm waiting for pricing on Jakes new heads before I start looking at getting brand new square port heads and the cost associated with tricking out those for use in our cars.... |
