Default JDM STI AVCS heads

Anyone got a good set of JDM STI AVCS heads for sale? I need some for my bugeye STI..

Must be in good order though, would request that the seller could measure the valve clearances for me (easy enough, 5 min job) and some decent pics of the valve seats. Or if not, then if I can inspect them (if there's a seller near enough that's not confident to check)

Had a missfire on mine, done leak down test and the exhaust valves weren't sealing. I whipped the head off yesterday and the valve seats are showing a lack of good seating and the clearances are really tight.

I obviously don't want another set unless they are in good order. Mine are also crack free so that'd be nice.

I just want to be able to rebuild it relatively quickly as I don't like not having a car, even though I don't use it much. It's just nice to know it's there, especially with a young child and being on my own with him a lot. This way I can get my heads rebuilt at my leisure and flog them in the future.

Ok Jay, can you drop me a pm when you know.

Ideally I'd like some as soon as I can, I've got a potential babysitter this weekend so would be handy to get a set before then so I can build mynengine back up.

Steve, David's set? Thanks.

Thanks Jura.

Does anyone know whether jdm bugeye heads are the same as uk?

I assumed mine would be 'big port' but it may be that's just twin scroll?
