mike-evans Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 My dad needs to get a reconditioned cylinder head for his 02 focus, its a 1.4 16v zetec se type. I found a reconed head on eBay but had been sold when i rang, this was a head exchange sale. I spoke to a company that recon heads and the guy said there are so many variants in the 1.4 and 1.6 heads that they do not sel them, they recon your own head. Can anyone clarify what i need to know and look for to ensure i get the correct head, or recommend a company to recon our cylinder head? The one currently on our car has 12 bolts through the rocker cover (been told to check how many bolts are there)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
