Shipping from USA is generally pretty expensive. Look at Uk suppliers and Volkszone forum for second hand stuff.
Transglobal express use unused carrier allowances to ship things cheaper than normal but even Royal Mail is pretty reasonable compared to Oz post and
USA post.
Also, when you say the heads are stuffed, in what way? Seats can be replaced and guides renewed so that only leaves cracks between the valve seats.
hi yes checked out the samba and import from usa
but thanks psimitar will have a look at the uk site the heads are both got cracks in them told they where fine we i brought them grrr
You really should by new ones, used you will likely just end up having 2 sets of cracked heads
hi mattberry where do you find new heads at a reasonable price
Should be around $1k complete. Try Vintage or any parts supplier in the back of VWMA
thanks for your help guys new heads on the way will put the motor together next weekend
