Well this thread seemed to stimulate a reply;

I have to send the original head back and then wait till he finds the second one and then I get a refund. Strangely enough I dont fancy paying to post it back. . .then waiting till he locates the infamous second head before getting my money back (and then being out of pocket for postage)

what a numpty!

Would be very wary of sending the head back to him before either a refund or the correct head turns up. Then instead of having an incorrect head and no money, you'll have NO head and no money and I daresay even less chance of hearing from this joker again.

The SRi heads are often referred to as "big valve heads" because they came from the factory with bigger valves, are you sure this wasn't what he was refering to when he sold it? If I were to purchase an SRi big valve head I would expect a standard head to turn up TBH, although not a rusty sh!tty mess

Dead right!! I am not sending it anywhere.

No it was listed as a big valve 1400SR head not SRI and I questioned this before buying it and he confirmed it was for a 1.4 SR
He also said it had solid lifters and when it arrived they were very mangled standard hydraulic ones!! All this is stated in his for sale thread!

I have been so patient with the guy and given so many chances for him to sort it its untrue - had the following excuses so far;

1. Took ages to arrive as it was "sent back" to him ??
2. Was called away with work so couldnt answer emails for a week
3. Knows nothing about Novas hence wrong/incorrect parts sent
4. Not on here often so cant answer PMs
5. Has no credit so cant reply to texts
6. Had to wait for his mate to come and check the second head - this was then confirmed as the right one but strangely I have never received it.

Yes I guess it does happen - just loads of excuses in all honesty thats all I was getting at - they could all be genuine but lots of them!
