I could be interested. I will need to find out if the 27/28 engine was modified from the 26. Does still have the head?

Cheers

Phil

Hi Phillip,

 

That probably explains why there was no head on my 29 L*80 when I bought it.

 

however you wont like what I am going to tell you now! I bought a head to replace it in New Zealand! but in order to buy it I had to buy a whole range of spares, almost enough to build another car if I had a chassis!

 

Amongst the spares was a complete 27/28 E 80 engine and another head (which incidently was a red head).

 

The problem is they are now in England

 

Regards
