Default WTB- VVT miata head complete W/O manifolds.

as the title states. im looking to get my hands on a VVT miata head.

if you have a link to one/know somebody with one/have one yourself

things i don't need with it:

lifters/valve train (i need the intake cam & gear)
either manifold
coolant/thermostat housing

I don't even care if the head is destroyed so long as the basics are there.

I may have one for you. How much are you looking to spend?

Have a great day,
Jared

Do you need the v/c, or the intake adjuster gear (assuming that you don't) or what ever it is called. The head will have all the rest installed.

Have a great day,

My bad, Just reread the first post. Major brain fart. When do you need it by? If I end up parting out my car I will be spliting the block.

Have a great day,
Jared

What is a FE3? So it could be a junk head with the V/C.

Have a great day,

yes, it doesn't matter if the head is junk. so long as the important parts are there.
id honestly preferr that. junk heads are cheaper!!!

FE3 is the BP's bigger stronger older brother.

The head has about 60k on it. It would come with the ready to bolt on and all sensors if you need them. If you don't need the sensors then I can take them off.

If I am not mistaken from our prior conversations you wanted the cams, head, vvt cam adjuster, valve cover and oil metering valve.

Let me know if that is all or do you need more and I will get back to you on a price.

Have a great day,
Jared
