    Yes these came off a running 2ltr. I'm upgrading to some bigger valve heads. As West said, these should fit your barrels as your heads had already been machined to fit them.

    If your chap finds a head to match what you have it won’t fit without being machined to suit the 93mm cylinders. And if the 021 101 371Q head is a bad as the 021 101 371J just without the cracks it’s far from good.
    021 101 371S are 1800 heads with 41 x 34 valves and will obviously fit straight onto your 1800 cylinders. 2.0l valves are 37.5 x 33 and are the smallest of all type 4 heads.

    Glad you got sorted. If your guy needs the heads let me know. Btw it was the pair for 200 not just one in case I didn't specify.
