Useable as is or rebuildable ?
I'd draw the line at valve guides but i'm happy to clean up, decoke and lap in valves as thats all simple, nothing that involves a machine shop essentially!
In 2 minds as to whether to part with it but....
I have an old 12G940 with 36.5 / 31.5 valves, monster ports, unfortunately monster compression ratio, new valve guides, new inlet valves, no bypass and a matching brand new un used decompression plate to bring the CR down to 10.6:1 using a 1330. Bought as a bare head from ebay in a fit of enthusiasm. 2 kid's house deposits from the bank of dad and a wedding have kinda wasted the project fund, hence the head is still sitting on the bench.
I'm based in Winchester. Not sure how far that is from GU10 but I could probably be tempted to turn it back into cash?!

Certainly interested, sounds like it would probably cost more than my engine did though!
My engine is a 1302 (+030), so it'd in theory at least work nicely. Winchester is a 40 minute drive from mine, would drive for the right head, (and i do 15 to the gallon!).
Will drop you a PM.
