93 - 850 Project Car
I bought a 93 850 for $350, I knew the timing belt was snapped so I knew going in it was going to need some work. I finally got my 94 850 to be an acceptable DDriver ( still 2 minor issues end link and muffler has a hole) so now I address this one!
Last night my son and I pulled the head, pretty time consuming job. But it is out!!!I was kind of shocked to see just Bent valves - a lot of them, but - none were broken. I am going to attempt to remove all the valves to see if the guides are broken if they are...or are not what do you guys do most frequently? Buy a different head and put it in place or rebuild? I guess I could do either but want to save as much cash as possible in that this car has other 'issues' that will call for $ to be thrown at it to resolve. Thanks again and Happy Thanksgiving |

What is the difference between the 93 850 Head and the 94 850 Head? I was just looking at the valves since almost all of mine are bent, then I figured I'd look up the cost of a new head...and the 94 is $895 and the 93 is $2,311 can anyone provide me some explanation as to why the 93 head is so much more expensive?

93 was like a special year. It is a unique year with unique parts.

JPN...man you see how expensive they are...to do 20 valves, guides, and seals would cost almost $500 plus shipping...dude I can buy a whole used car for that money...

No I did not recognise the valve job would be so expensive...:(.
But then you can fix it up, find another junked 850, then restore it and find another...wait a minute, this sounds familiar...:). I guess a junked 93 850 would be the best alternative:(. JPN |
