Problem is its an old school head. Full engines can be had for £50. Head is now second hand. If you ask nicely ill give you £30 for it. Who built it? Ported? any flow figures?

Head was by Goode Racing of Leicester
It had new cam bearings fitted at time of build and some work has been done to inlet ports,the cam has got to be worth more than 30 quid with vernier alone!
Admittedly the head is not unleaded but I have run loads of leaded heads with additives or a fuel cat to no detriment to the valve seats at all

Full engines straight out of a Sierra can be had for £50. I would say your head with cam and vernier if in sound condition has got to be worth closer to £100. Have a look on ebay and see what sort of money things make. Good luck
