  • Wanted - serviceable b230f head in TAS

Hey gang,

Got the dreaded call from the engine reco shop today that the head off pops volvo has cracked so after a serviceable replacement if someone has one, preferably in southern tas and complete :)

Thanks!

Do you need a 530 or 531 head?

(this refers to the last 3 digits of the casting number above the exhaust manifold)

I didn’t actually note it - can check with the engine reco place but I’d be pretty confident it’s a 530 head, late 88 na b230f

That would be a 530 head fitted originally but they would both do the job

6 days later

Bump - still looking, will consider shipping if someone has something on the big island - cheers!!

Is there no way to repair the cracked head?

Unfortunately not - according to the reco place it’s in a really hard to get at spot

Have you called Berry Motor Group?

We have a re-condition head in the works via Berry Motor Group - thanks again @Ex850R

    I wondered if they still kept a reconditioned lot of 240 gear still.

    Good news!
