There is one curently listed for sale on ebay, it has cracked between the valves so is for spares or repairs. Not sure if its a common problem with these?? They may be ported out close to the tolerances... ??

Ah yea just done a search for it, the valves look huge with hardly any gap between them, no wonder they crack!! Could easily be welded or k-seal possible? Haha, I'd rather spend £50 then £1400+

Might be worth a bid? Haha

I was thinking the same because it would be good for my turbo build but then I thought how many times will I crack in the future especially when I'm running a bit of boost? I could really do with the Golf being reliable lol

I just had a look at the invoice on the pictures and it says "demo" and it's dated 2000 so it's a 14 year old head and most probably one of the first they done??? Iv sent a message to the bloke selling it asking what performance gains he had and how long before it cracked haha, I want to run nitrous so I also need something strong :/

I will re-word that, it was Sold in 2000 so could have taken 13/14 years of abuse? I know the head is probably older.
