got a rather annoying rattle from my corsas 1.4 8v engine sounds like camshaft or tappet, seen you can get camshaft kits but would it just be easier to get a new head from the breakers ??

Could be a number of things.

But if it is from the head, putting a new cam in would be easier than a new head as you woulnt need new head bolts/gasket etc
