Hi

I am after a 998 cooper 12G295 head in original condition if possible, although anything considered and must be willing to post.

Also after a remote box for a 998 cooper preferably 22G68 3 synchro box, but any other remote mini box considered and must be willing to courier or located north west uk.

Thank you for your help.

Steve

Hi Haz

Thanks for getting back to me, I'm really after a 12G295 because I'm restoring a mk1 1966 cooper and want if I can to have the right spec.

Thanks

Steve

I have a bare 295 head, not original though as skimmed 65 thou from original 2.750 inches. Was skimmed to suit a 998 with flat top pistons. It's crack free and very clean. PM me if it's of potential interest.

Hi, thank you for your response and sorry for the delay.

The block is still the standard high compression block with d top pistons so not sure if this head can be used?

Pretty sure I’ve got a bare unskimmed 12G295 under the bench. I’ll dig out and let you know in the next few days what condition it’s in.

This would give you too much compression sadly.

Ok well thank you Mr Peanut for getting back to me, I thought that was likely to be the case.

 

Hopefully Luke will be able to dig out his in the next few days.

Hi Geoff

Thanks for the reply but Id of thought that a metro turbo head would be a low compression 12G940 so unfortunately not what I am after.

Thanks for letting me know

Steve
