Cylinder Head

Post by Toecutter » Wed Oct 27, 2010 8:18 pm

Hi there was wondering if anyone has purchased a cylinder head from ebay if so who from and was quality ok. The reason I am asking is that I possibly need a new cylinder head, also could anyone tell me the torque settings for the head bolts and the tightening sequence. Many thanks Jay. :D

Cylinder heads are not cheap I know but do not scrimp on this as some of the heads offered are not up to standard.
bolt holes not lining up is just one of the tales that come to mind

get your self a mazda origional its worth it in the long run

they may look cheap on ebay but not fitting properly or failing soon can make them very expensive

Same with the gasket
