HEY EVERYONE.
MY F75 ROCKY SPORTS AFIELD STARTED TO USE WATER SO I GOT A VRS KIT STRIPPED THE HEAD OFF AND TO MY ANNOYANCE FOUND NO BREACHING OF THE GASKET BUT A CRACK ALL THE WAY FROM THE PRE COMBUSTION CHAMBER TO THE INLET VALVE GUIDE.
SO IM AFTER A HEAD FOR THE 2.8L DIESEL TURBO DL-51 ENGINE
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT
STEVE

Its a shame Twistup. I had a head and other associated motor stuff in m y spare parts car that went to Sims a few years ago.
I still have 2 complete motors, one in a chassis, and one buried in the workshop, either you could have, you could have both would be even better for me, same deal as the axles/diff parts, if only you were a little bit closer. Because one of these days, wneh I get my act together, the whole lot will be heading for Sims.
