Heath,
Series 2 Bluebird head. These are usually a bit better than the U67 head for
a turbo as it has big ports already and may not have the fly cuts in the
inlet ports, can't recall what cam in these but the L20B heads don't squish
as well as the A87 or V912 for turbo use. Good price that for a reasonable
head especially if it's got good valves etc.
