2g head on a 1g???? Options

[AWD DSM 1]

Don't ask me how, but somehow the head that I had rebuilt turned out to be a 2g head. I didn't even realize it until someone else pointed it out to me. My question - is this gonna cause problems? Will the CAS bolt up ok? I niticed how dramatically smaller the ports are, if I port them out will that be just as good as a 1g? Or should I be selling this head and looking for a good 1g head to put on? Will the ARP stud kit I have coming work with this head? Please somebody tell me that I'm not totaly f#$%ed....

And the saga continues...

Ok at the risk of being stoned by Rob and his wife...

I think that unless you are looking for low 11's Rob, this head will do. Sure it may not be AS efficient, but a set of 1G cams is easy to come by and I don't think the rest will make much difference.

Heck, after seeing the turbo off of an automatic 1G it would suprise me if the heads on those auto cars were smaller too. (I have no factual proof of that).

Either way, it really depends on your goals Rob. If you can get your money back and there are no hard feelings...cool. Especially on the basis that you thought you were getting a stock 1G turbo head. The 2G head is definitely worth something to people. Especially those that broke a timing belt and just want to get back up and running ASAP.

Either way I think you will be ok Rob...In my opinion this is not a life or death, nor the difference of 1-2 seconds in the quarter mile and especially not all the hair you've been pulling out over it.

Good luck...It's nice to see you guys working together on this issue so well!
