What are you going to do with it?
How about building a second MPPE and fit a nice M46 behind it?
The guy where I bought it from had a engine stand, where we hoisted the engine (less gearbox) in the trunk of my 2 doors amazon. Once at home, I stripped the engine to cut down the weight, so I could manouvre it out by hand. That ment stripping the alternator, starter, flywheel, manifold and head. I now could look into the cilinders: looking pretty ok actually. Perhaps I could just run the bottom end as-is (its supposed to have run 130k miles). The head did not look that nice, the exhaust valves have worn out the head completely: seat recession varied between 3 and 5 mm's (!). The intakes (44 mm, yeah) all look alike, but I fear they have some seat recession aswell. Will take those out tomorrow. Did you know the combustion chamber is also 92 mm like the E/F heads?
I think I might use this head for my current daily driver B20. Have to fit (hardened) valve seats anyway if I want to use it, so I might aswell go a bigger size, shave it for higher compression and tinker around with it some more... Yummy!
