I sold one of mine that was incomplete for $260. You just have to search around for a good deal.

I got a Redtop cylinder head for sale. It's stripped with just valves&springs in it, but I'd like $200 for it. Just ball parking it for ya.

Make sure you get the original cam towers and bolts, and make SURE they are in the EXACT same positions as stock.

The cam holes are line bored AFTER the cam towers are installed, so if you mix them up, you will score and eventually (1 week - 1 year) break a cam.

You really have to trust the guy you get a head from kept all the little parts in exact order.

On other engines you can buy oversized inserts for the cam towers (after machining head & towers to accept them) but no such products exist for SR20 that I can find.
