New MPI 1275cc head casting built up with new valves and springs etc; all set up for unleaded fuel. Last of these brand new castings but obviously slightly soiled paint etc through age. Has standard size valves 33mmx29mm.

For NON MPI cars see GCG1009METRO where we have modified this head by machining in a thermostat seat and drilled a temperature transmitter hole, plus opening up the heater tap hole which was not used on MPI cars.

This head is also available with larger 35.6mm inlet valves and the valve throats enlarged accordingly for flow imrovements, which makes it more expensive -if used on MPI the transmitter hole and heater valve hole will need blanking plates-see MSE7 for the large inlet valve head version.

4 lead free heads available with road use type valves and not gas flowed are GCG1009 MPI new head casting 33x29 valves size for MPI injection cars only
