Cracked head

[Care4cars]

So my head is cracked. I’m currently looking for a new head or prices of new engines. Do y’all know where I could get a new/used one

Have you tried car-part.com? I don't know if they sell parts of engines separately but it's worth a look.

Where are you located, btw?

Is that cracked valve? I have rebuilt lately two engines and that reminds me of cracked valve.

I found someone with a engine but yes it’s a cracked head

I see. Then it has two faults, a cracked head and a missing valve. Here is a picture of my recenly opened 3A engine head with all remaining 8 valves. You can compare the difference by yourself.

Or did you remove that valve by yourself for inspection? If yes, then I understand the cracked head part.

Some engine shops do use vacuum gauges to find such issues.
