terrance_19 0 Posted January 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Nice one guys, rapid reply! I thought if I was keeping everything obd2 then the head should be obd2 or am I wrong?? Link to post Share on other sites
cabrioman 6 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 the heads aint that different between obd1 and 2 one has slightly better oil flow around the chains and the casting on the drive belt side is slightly different this only matters if u wanna fitt a rotrex charger as ull need to remove a section for the belt iirc ....

craggsy 91 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I think it just depends when the head was cast really......my old head is a late '97 one and was fine with my rotrex. Tony then supplied another one and we needed to get the hacksaw out onto it Link to post Share on other sites

terrance_19 0 Posted January 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I've got a reconditioned head, skimmed and pressure tested from the original engine which is a 96' so I'll go with that, sounds good fellas. Link to post Share on other sites
