"Hiya all ! Long time since I been on here but alas here i am again with a Cylinder Head problem. I have an AQ170c with a cracked (past repair, 3 cracks) cylinder head. Can anyone tell me which car the engine the AQ170c was based on and would there be a match ? Also any source of supply for a new cylinder head would be the bees knees ? bearing in mind I am located in the UK ? Any advice would be great as im pretty much stuck presently ???? HELP !"
