Just bought a part reconditioned cross flow cylinder head for the bike carb engine build on my Golf. Provided the seller doesn't get arsey, I got it for the grand total of... £1.45

that's the whole cylinder head including cam and all sensors
So that brings the cost of parts of my build up to £17.45

I have carbs and the cylinder head so far... Now need to find a mega cheap manifold and I can start putting her together
Gotta love eBay sometimes!!
