New 200 Head

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know where i could get a cheep reconditioned head for my 200 inline?? i know auto zone has them for 290$ i just dont have that money right now with school and everything and my local junk yard hasnt been any help

To be honest I think a recon. head for $290 is about as cheap as you'll find, unless someone has one just laying around that they'll let go cheap, and thats provided that it doesn't need any machine work.

i was able to find a good head for a decent price a while back, lemme look for the site

300$ for a ready to run rebuilt head isnt a bad deal.

even if you get a head for free, it will cost you about that to rebuild it.

Unless you do the work yourself. I bought my head for 40$ from pick n' pull, and did all the work myself to get it up and running. It's not perfect, however... but works for me.

I didn't have any major problems that needed addressing.

Whats wrong with your head?

WOW! $300! I paid parts and labor to rebuild mine, $400! You mean I could have went down the street and picked it up for $100 less? I wonder what's all included.

Whats wrong with your head?

It's a late model head, and I was hoping you weren't in the contra costa brentwood! I'm down in SoCal. I might be making a mob up there sometime in the next month or so so we'll talk.

Start a new thread, but do a search first. TONS of information on that on the site already.
