    Chambered 1.6 Xflow Head (Port and Polish)

    Anyone have anything? Running a GT head as far as I know on my 681F block at the moment.

    I may have got one.
    So far as I know the chambered heads didn't come with GT size valves. Just 38mm ones.

    If I do have one postage to you would be a problem!

    Early 1600E had chambered head and they were GT spec so I believe.

    Let's see what you have.

    I'm sure shipping is gonna be.. not so nice.. when I measured up a head to send to England it was roughly £100

    Got a chambered burton full race head with 43mm inlets and 39 exhaust valves, nicely ported. Has had a repair, and needs the new valves lapped in as had a bent one.
    £250.

    Thanks, looking for something that doesn't need any additional work.

    You'll be lucky with chambered heads then as they aren't really favoured here for tuning. I have one that has been ported but will need new valve guides. And I have a standard one that will also likely need guides plus new valves (or valves re-facing).

    Hi there,

    Do you still have this cylinder head?
    Are we there yet?
