Hi Glen

So, your looking for a 3 bolt 914 2.0 ltr head, the earlier one without the air injection holes ? And preferably ready to bolt on ?

What is the problem with the one you have ? Right now you have a matched pair, unless you don't have a pair ?, so if they have been surfaced they would have the same chamber height, so same cc's, if you get another head, it could of been decked more or less than the head you have, and chamber cc's will be off from one head to the other, unless you have the chamber cc's matched.

I will see what I can find.

Thanks for your attention,one head was destroyed by detonation, I came to the same conclusion,and used matched pair off another engine I was saving for build. :idea:
