Hi All

Are there any places that deal with good replacement heads? I'm looking for 1800 heads with bigger valves? I can get them from the states, but if they're available here, I'd give it a shot.

Thanks

I'll give them a call. I noticed them in VWMA, has anyone used them before? Do they use AMC heads?

I have used Jax for headwork, he mainly uses original heads but i had new AMC heads and had 42x36mm valves and seats installed, i supplied these myself all up cost about $1500 i alsochanged the springs and retainers.

This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

Hi 66

Thanks, that's exactly what I'm going for, I've heard the amc castings were good, but hardware was poor.
