Well spotted Paul.
Minivanless, but reluctantly happy living with the decision. There'll be another one day.

Tempting but I already have the K16v sat at the back of the garage when i get a few spare moments on my hands  I think most of the people on this site have one tucked away in the back of their garage somewhere. Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:

I'm still on the lookout for a 16v, but only for a decent price. On 7th Oct, 2010 5haneJ said:

Got my K1200RS 16v head from from Motor Works bike breakers up North, everything: loom, RS cams, head, 38 mm throttle bodies, everything, for about £425 about 3 years ago. Might have gone up a bit but worth checking them out. Richard. Minivanless, but reluctantly happy living with the decision. There'll be another one day.

Its a real waste, all these heads sat on a shelf doing nothing. All its done is push the price up of whats left On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:

More flow as you have more ports in the head and easier to fuel inject Sounds good to me, anybody got a rough idea of overall cost for me to buy the parts required and fit the head? Also, rough idea of a basic turbo'd 1380 with this head on omex? '89 Austin Metro GTa :) |

No, the plan is to stick with the A Series Turbo on the van and optimise it a good deal more but take my Ma's 1380 Clubby estate and do a 1293 K conversion as the motor needs to come out for a rebuild anyway. Those are the plans for a few months time (if not years !). I have most of the SC parts necessary (build guide, drilling jig, plates, cam drives, seals, belt kit etc) but need an ECU, exhaust manifold, cam pulleys and copper gasket. Since I bought my conversion kit a couple of years ago, John K has made major upgrades to the SC kit of parts but I'll bide my time for the remaining parts 'til I can afford em. Richard. Minivanless, but reluctantly happy living with the decision. There'll be another one day.
