Cylinder Head 12G940

This head came with the car in a box and will not be getting used !





Looking nice and clean after a bit of degreasing..



Just the head I wanted for a bit of tuning the infamous 12G940 the head for tuning...

Head came with single springs..



Old valves and seats.


Looking at this it is going to need to be converted to lead free petrol.
This means new valve seats can be pressed in and re cut.







Nice pic just thrown in for good measure.



Heat resistant paint..



Here you can see the brass valve guides have been pressed in

And yip I have been playing with the dremel openin up the intake and outlet holes.




Head paint hardening by the warm fire.




New oil valve seals..




Tadaa nice new valves sitting on their nice new valve seats.







Double springs for big valves.






This should be good when its fitted.

Pressed Rockers 



More red paint...



What the head looked like before i worked on it..
