head swap?

Post by smatt1079 »

I was wondering if I could gather some opinions on what to do. I found a 95 850 Turbo for sale here for a pretty good price because the head gasket is bad - mixing oil/coolant (I think I could get it for 5-700). I have an 850 non-turbo engine sitting in the garage out of a 96, so if the head is bad i could use that - but I'm wondering if the head will fit, and if anyone thinks it
If its on the internet, it must be true!

VADIS shows both heads as the same part number.
