NTB: 12mm 3 notch IDI head
« on: June 27, 2022, 08:24:45 am »
Good Day All,

I am in need of a solid lifer 1.6d head made after 83. This is a need for my business vehicle so time is of the essence.

Thank you,
Justin

Colorado, although I may have already found one, what are the details of yours?

Thank you,
Justin

 I have a couple used 12mm heads, not sure what I would sell them for.
But I don't need them all and have been thinking about selling one.

The thread title confuses me.  The notches are in the head gasket.  The head gasket (number of notches) is determined by the protrusion of the pistons above the block at TDC.  The head doesn't enter into the equation.

My apologies, Libby you are correct, I am in need of just a 12mm mechanical head.



I edited the title for you so it reflects that you need just the head.  ORCoaster
