Default Cosworth cylinder head - pics added

Cylinder head from 1991 Sapphire Cosworth 4x4.

The head dropped a valve and was removed, to be replaced with another complete head. This head is stripped down, but is complete in that the cams, valves etc are all included. The car was running stage 3 and owner thought the head had some work done to it.

No visible damage as far as I can see, but can get pics if needed or welcome to come and view if your local.

Open to offers.

I'm not too sure what's it worth? My mate just sold a bare but good head for Ł300, so based on that I'd be looking for Ł200 for this will all the bits with it.

Head was removed a while ago, six years or so but has been stored carefully and looks nice and clean.

Not sure about postage, never posted something of this weight?

sorry for the delay, here are the pics:





I had two mates round today who have both had Cossie's and are time served mechanics who could not find any damage to the head as a result of the valve dropping.

Unfortunately not managed to get hold of the tool to measure the decking height yet.
