Wreckers want $100 for the complete set of timng covers and backing plates. Scrap pays from 6 to 50 for th engines

The heads are the start of EA82T heads , just need drilling and tapping on turbo side. The originals had different exhaust valves. If they have no cracks, they have some value better than scrap, worth servocing and hoarding to some of us.

Sorry to hijack the thread but nice to know the MPFI heads are good replacements for the EA82T as i just picked up a fuel injected touring wagon the other day as spares for my RX and had know idea of the similarities!

I had a head service place convert an mpf head and try to pass it off as a turbo head I had left with them. Tap for oil supply and drill for oil return tube and essentially you have it bar the longer exhaust valve - from factory. After market replacements are same part number acording to extremeRX
