Default YBP cylinder head availability?

Does anyone know if the YBP is currently produced new (seems like its only the YBT?) or if anyone is likely to have any new-old stock of them?

A friend of mine is after one, and having a lot of trouble tracking one down.

Or failing that, does anyone know of any exceptionally good condition ones for sale?

Don't think it has or ever will be reproduced. They are a very rare beast on thier own, took me months to find my unskimmed one for a spare to keep hold of.

I think Doug Stirling has one he would let go for about 1k, but it is ported hence the £

I think we have a un-skimmed mint one but it would need to be decent money.

these are made by cosworth and a hybrid of the 2wd and 4x4 designs so no good for a standard ybp
