Default Rebuilt VVT head of questionable provenance with supertech springs

I bought this a year or more back for an engine build I never did. I haven't taken it apart or verified the contents, so take that for what it is.

Reportedly:
  • Porting (which I'd generously call half-assed)
  • New supertech single springs
  • New valves
  • New other stuff (seller said "everything", so presumably valve stem seals, lifters etc. but I haven't not verified)
Other than an incomplete port job, it appears clean and we'll put together.

$400 shipped conus, less than that if meeting up in the bay area or Monterey county.

Pictures will be uploaded in a couple hours

I'm guessing BP4W based off the price?

That's what I get for posting this from my phone. Failed picture upload, and failed edit to add head type. It's a VVT. Pictures below.

I'm in your neck of the woods weekly, so you can scope it out before taking the plunge.

I'm not sure. I've had it for about 2 years and bought it from someone in LA, if that helps place it's origins
