Hi,
I just picked up a 2.7l 8 valve head in good shape for my S2 turbo project. I was wondering what current market value is on these heads. Also how much an S2 16 valve head with repaired tensioner (read cracked off mounting point and was welded back in) with 80k miles would go for. Thanks in advance, I'll let you guys know how much I paid for it after a couple of replies![thumbup](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/thumbup.gif)

Hey Nick, what's that "turbo poject" your doing ???
And thanks again for those spacers, I had promised pictures but you can't really tell they are installed. I can, but on the pictures it doesn't show.

Just curious, why aren't you using the 16 valve head?

yes, I did not go internal at all, but I'm only running about 5lbs of boost, but I did this on a fairly tight budget while still using good components. If I was running any more boost it'd be intercooled, and any more than 9psi, I'd go with lower compression pistons. But that starts a slippery slope on the way to complete engine rebuild where each step increases reliability and power potential. I'm not going there.
Any more than 15psi, I'd want a built bottom end and O-ringed head.
