wanted - Head 2.1td

It looks like I'm looking to a head gasket job very soon, question: does anyone have a good head lying around they would part with, if it proves mine is cracked?

Just trying to think of my options earlier, rather than later...

Many thanks
George

They very rarely crack unless severely boiled, one of mine survived boiling several times.

The 2.1 heads very rarely crack as the coolant has proper bleeding back tot the header tank.

Many thanks all -good to know Robert.

There's no reason mine shoud be cracked as I've never had the needle above 90C, let alone boil it. Just want to organise my thoughts in advance...
