I've got a head from a 95 850. It was pulled 5 years ago and has been in the garage. It is in great condition (flat, no damage) but has been sitting so I would get it reworked by a machine shop. Make an offer, I can send pics if you are interested.

For $125 plus shipping I would pull the head from the running 97 turbo that is sitting in my driveway. 172k. The head is the same on all 94-98 P80 turbo, except there are possibly differences in the shape of the intake manifold ports on a 94. If you needed the manifold I would include it no extra charge. Shipping will add up for heavy parts.

If you get a used head then no matter what I would suggest replacing the valve stem seals. The ones on the 97 seem fine but at 20 years old they are all going out now.

I would be interested in the 95 head. Couple of pictures would be good too. Not sure what to offer. What's it worth to you? Let me know.
