Standard used head I would say around £25 (unless it's done stupidly low mileage), inlet about £10.

He is looking for a standard one mate!

Stage 2 Head, as in Ported, Polished, and Cam'd anything from £50 -£250 depending on who did the work and how many miles it's done.

No mention of any porting work being done on that one, and really this is the most important thing on a CVH head as standard ports are VERY restrictive.

I would keep looking on the bay mate and in the for sale ad's on here.
Or if you have the money get your own head reworked from here http://www.cylinderheaddevelopments.co.uk/
