    For a GT3, what about this then?

    Would like to get "Chewie" sorted fairly quickly, so a cheap recon. head would save a lot of time and investigation.

    Are you sure? Didn't Debbie use a POTR (Tipo) head on his car? I'm sure someone would confirm.

    Either way both of the ones listed seem pretty cheap.

    potr bvh's if made from a tipo head cause the same problems with the compression ratio. i have one and had to machine the combustion chambers.

    so they are ideal if you have a gt1 or gt1 pistons and want to run gt3 c/r, but no use on a gt3 will cause failure.

    if you machine the head to your current engines cr then it should work fine. I am currently building a tipo head BVH.
