C20XE cylinder Head

I'm not normally one to comment on the value of things.

But surely this head is not worth THAT much!

yeah easily worth that. valves, valve springs and guides etc probably do you for 500 quid alone.

c and c heads charge around 1500+vat for a competition head if i remember rightly and thats without the valves and other associated bits.

this is the opposite end of the scale to someone who says itz got gaz flowd init yo wid dem low profile cams yo.

i think the majority of people on here dont need such a cylinder head while popping wheelies in maccy 3s hence wont understand the costs involved in such proper items.

yes proper things cost a lot of money. This type of item isnt really of interest to 99 percent of people on here tbh.

Easily worth it

Double valve springs are £500-600 easy
then the cams, and port/polish makes up the rest easily.
i was alot more expensive for my head!
very worth it.
