It looks as if I am going to be in the UK for a few weeks from early November so a good opportunity to move some more unwanted surplus parts on. In Sunningdale I have a pair of used B20 2.5l heads in good condition with no visible corrosion. They from engine B20 3941 which is 4th series I believe and have been planed during their life however they are very useable. I also have another 2.5l B20 head stamped B20 0012 which looks as if it has been hardly used if at all. It has never been planed and is in excellent condition. And finally I have a pair of outer B20 rear drive shafts - that's the shaft from the splined coupling to the outside u/j. These have new needle rollers and rubber seals and the splines are in very good condition.
I will post photos of all the above in a couple of days. If these are unsold when I return to the UK in early November I will be also be listing their details on ebay. Chris

Here are a couple of photos of the rear drive shafts. If necessary I can supply with the 'blocks' which bolt to the hub with new rubber seals and needle rollers. No reasonable offer refused. Chris

The drive shafts referred to above are sold but to my slight surprise the cylinder heads are still available in Sunningdale.
I cant see that Aurelia cylinder heads will ever be re-manufactured....and if they are, at what price? All 3 heads shown above have little if no corrosion which is becoming a real problem these days as they approach 70 years old and the pair of used heads from engine B20 3941 have plenty of life left in them. These heads will fit all series of 2.5l B20s.
The single hardly used (if ever?) head stamped B20 0012 which is shown in the final 4 photos above is £1,650 and the pair of used 2.5l heads in the earlier photos above are £2,600 for the two. Chris

It looks as if I will be returning to Italy towards the end of May so this is just a reminder that the 3 cylinder heads mentioned above here in Sunningdale are still available. I still have a small quantity of other good Aurelia parts available here which I would ideally like to see go before the end of May. I will list these separately once I have double checked them this evening. Chris

To my ongoing surprise these Aurelia 2.5l cylinder heads have not sold either here or on ebay.co.uk . I have a plan to return to Italy this coming Friday and I am fairly certain I will be taking them with me as they will surely sell there? Chris

The pair of good used Aurelia 2.5l cylinder heads referred to earlier are still available in the UK for £2,600 as is the 'as new' one which is £1,650. Chris

These 3 Aurelia cylinder heads referred to earlier with photos are still available in the UK for now but if I still have them in June I will take them to Italy and sell them there, probably to a trader who will then add his not inconsiderable margin. Chris

The pair of used cylinder heads are now sold - thank you the Forum - but the single hardly used (if ever?) head stamped B20 0012 which is shown in the final 4 photos above is available for £1,650. Chris

To my great surprise, i realise I still have the hardly used ( if at all?) cylinder head B20 0012 referred to earlier with photos here in Sunningdale Berks. The price of good used OE Aurelia spare parts continues to rise year on year regardless of car prices themselves but in the case of this cylinder head the price remains at £1,650 + delivery for the next 4 weeks or so. After that, if unsold, I will most likely put it on ebay and also the Aurelia Facebook page, probably at a higher price.. Chris

Those of you who know me well will know about my 'hospital adventure' earlier this year. One of the side effects of this interruption in my normal life has been that I never got round to putting this barely used (if at all?) 2.5l cylinder head B20 0012 on sale elsewhere so its still available here in Sunningdale.
