CVH 16valve- thats a new one on me!
From this thread...
http://www.passionford.com/forum/vie...224794#4224794
Seen Zetecs have 8 valve heads put on, but never seen the other way round, cool.
Old too, early 80s.
Seems Shrick only ever made FOUR for Ford to test, after testing they were ordered to all be destroyed, but this one was sly'd away, and now is the only one left in existance
Well cool i think

i know this is gonna sound daft, but a cvh head fits onto a zetec block, does it also work the other way around, not that i can see a point to it but just wondering

There was a feature in a german magazine that my friend used to get, that was in 1980 when my dad bought his xr3 so I was interested in it, but don't remember much other than they were being sold by a german firm for a racing series that had started up, but mucho DM they cost!!

Cool bit of trivia, but doubt it offers any benefits at all over a zetec motor, and at least you can buy off the shelf cams for a zetec
